The Arbor - November 2012

The November 2012 issue of the Arbor focuses on personal revelation.

Over the course of attending group meetings I have learned there are many ways the Lord sends His revelation besides the traditional prayer, scriptures or voice we may hear in our mind. For some it's in the words of another, from a good book we are reading, in a priesthood blessing, a Sunday school class we’re attending, an article from the Ensign or other good magazine, or a feeling in our heart.

It also includes the most recent information on phone-in and face-to-face Addiction Recovery Program meetings in the region served by the Detroit agency of LDS Family Services.
