"If ye are prepared ye shall not fear." D&C 38:30

Pioneer Faith is needed as much in the world today as in any period of time." - Elder L. Tom Perry

"What about our time? Are there pioneering experiences for us? Will future generations reflect with gratitude on our efforts, our examples? You young people can indeed be pioneers in courage, in faith, in charity, in determination. You can strengthen one another; you have the capacity to notice the unnoticed. When you have eyes to see, ears to hear, and hearts to feel, you can reach out and rescue others of your age." - President Thomas S. Monson
