Akron Ohio Stake News

To honor means to regard with great respect; to have an attitude of admiration or esteem; to manifest the highest veneration for in words and actions. We honor our ancestors because – among other things – they were brave, courageous men and women who were willing to leave their families and homeland and come to America.  Someday, each of us will be someone’s ancestor.  How would you like to be honored?  President Hinckley stated, “You will feel a special connection to those who have gone before you and an increased responsibility to those who will follow” (March 8, 2000, National Press Club Speech).  The Stake Family History Library has some exciting events happening in the next few months. On July 20th we will have an area on the concourse of Irish Heritage Night with the Rubber Ducks.  You should be getting information in the newsletter about an opportunity to attend with discounted tickets.  We are excited they have contacted us to be part of this event.
