By Katrina Goodrich Women’s Society 2020 has been a whirlwind so far. I believe this year has definitely upset daily routines and completely shaken up what normal looks like for most people. How interesting that our focus for this year’s General Conference was an apt play on eyesight—“Fix Your Eyes on Jesus.” We’re certainly getting...

Apr 28, 2020
