Covenant Land

We urge members of the Church and all Americans to begin now to reflect more intently on the meaning and importance of the Constitution, and of adherence to its principles. -First Presidency 1973

Do you understand the Constitution enough to defend it?  Do your kids?  This curriculum will help you know it enough to defend it!

I established the Constitution of this land, by the hands of wise men whom I raised up unto this very purpose, and redeemed the land by the shedding of blood.   D&C 101:80

The Covenant Land book incorporates quotes and scripture from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It will help you know why this land is so important and our role in helping preserve it. 

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free … it expects what never was and never will be.”   
-Thomas Jefferson

The founding fathers of the United States were inspired men. They were not working alone when they wrote the Constitution.  Learn about their stories and miracles!

Marilyn loves a beautiful cause. And from here we’ll go with first person—I love learning, adventures of all kinds but especially adventures in nature and/or living out some part of an experience from a book we have read. I love reading aloud or being read to. I am addicted to watermelon and I have a decent track record picking out the amazing ones (not 100%). I am a proficient stalker. This means I love to hang out with passionate people and learn from them. My favorite times are laughing with my family—It’s the best medicine for sure. I served a mission in Portugal. I studied at BYU and it completely changed my heart forever. Mostly I love Jesus and I’m trying to be like Him. I blow it everyday and that’s about right.
