“Covenant Women” Video Premiere

Have you seen our new dance video yet? Don’t miss these fabulous dancers sharing an artistic expression of being a covenant keeping woman.

It was so enjoyable to film and dance out in nature together!

(If you have already seen it, watch this special look behind the scenes — including some bloopers!)

Enjoy this dance suite exploring these ideas in three parts:

Being a covenant keeping wife and mother is constant, daily effort. With so much to do, we can rely on our Heavenly Father and Savior for help each day with the repetitive work involved in choosing to be faithful.

Living the Gospel of Jesus Christ and keeping our covenants with God takes effort but it is also a wonderful journey full of joy that can lift us up through the trials of life.

We receive friendship and strength from all other covenant keeping women – past, present, future – we all offer and receive strength from each other. We are on this journey through life together and we need each other.
