What legacy are you leaving behind? Every day we interact with others, we work, play, love, serve, and so much more. What are we leaving trailing behind us as we go? In this week's podcast, we talk about the legacy of Love that Jarred's uncle Butch left behind, the legacy of freedom for our God, religion, and families Captain Moroni left behind, and I ask for a special birthday wish that each of you leave a legacy of love! President Alvin F. Meredith said in a recent podcast: "In the church today, we need leaders who will love the people, lift the people, and witness the name of the Savior.” We can all do the same, we can love, lift, and witness of the Savior and leave that legacy behind for others!
