Quote/Principle
Faith must be more than a belief it must move us to action and obedience to the commandments of the Lord.

A “certain woman” made that choice and felt His touch. “And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any, “Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched… I have asked myself what might have happened if this woman with the issue of blood had not believed in the Savior enough to make whatever effort was necessary to touch the border of His robe. In that throng I imagine getting even that close to Him took some doing. Yet, “nothing wavering,” she persisted.
In like manner, we must demonstrate that faith in the Lord has penetrated our hearts deeply enough to move us to action.”
Anne C. Pingree, To Look, Reach, and Come unto Christ, October 2006 General Conference

Ornament
This wreath made of buttons and muslin represents the clothing that the woman had faith to touch and be healed,
