The Spirit of Music

Dave Hasson blessed the Carmichael Family Home Evening with his incredible music. Performing beautiful love songs and Christ centered popular music with soloist Kaity Bell. She and her mom Sheri Turner Gray performed the final duet about the prodical son held the audience spell bound. Look for Dave Hasson’s music performed by a talented local choir directed by Sheri Turner Gray in future firesides. You will not want to miss it!

Eastern Dance

The Eastern dance started off with dynamic Declan teaching a fun dance lesson. He also teaches at the Latin dance. Next month we will learn the cha cha at 8PM. Our favorite lively duo disc jockeys rocked the night away with a great variety of popular tunes. Dancers came from as far away as San Jose to enjoy Sacramento Single Adults. Everyone enjoyed a lovely spread of sweet and healthy treats. Invite your friends to join the fun!

Look and Lift

Carmichael Family Evening invited President Greer of the Sacramento temple presidency to speak Monday night. The Spirit was strong and the personal relationship between many of those present went back many years. Story after story of uplifting personal experiences gave a strong message that our Father in Heaven knows each one of us and our talents and missions. He had a tender heart for the sisters and their giving spirit. His expressions of love for his wife are tender. Their combined faith in Jesus Christ led to a healing miracle. Without notes, filled with the Spirit, he lifted our lives. His comment “I am only a heart beat away from being in the same place as you are” referring to being a single adult, gave each member a reassurance he understood. President's over riding message was to look around and lift others spirits. He practices what he preaches. We will all look forward to his return speaking engagement in April.

Happy Saint Patty's Day

Carmichael Family Home Evening had a touch of the blarney stone whimsy with Irish green tablecloths and St Patrick’s Day decor. Corn beef and cabbage, cornbread with other green food groups made the festivities lively. Charlette's wispy green ears brought a smile & Dave shared magic tricks faster than the eye could follow. Barry had the luck of the Irish as his wore a red lit lip pin with the words, “kiss me I’m Irish”. You’ll have to ask the Irishman himself how it worked. A wonderful end to the evening as Patty sharing her lucky but truly divinely directed trip to Japan. A rough journey with a happy ending led to a golden investigator, which was baptized before she came home. She truly strengthened our testimony that the Lord provides a way for his children’s eternal joy. We take our Irish derby hat off to Patty for a great evening. We all enjoyed an Irish blessing.

On A Spiritual Note

Sunday’s Fireside lifted us with music and lyrics from the Church hymnbook. Performances vocally and on the piano touched chapel members as each song was presented with a story of a personal connection to the hymn.
