I just want to tell everyone that I love my Lord Jesus Christ, my savior. I read about the resurrection in the new Testament this week and I have to say that it takes a very faithful and strong person to do what Jesus did. I am proud to say that I follow my Heavenly Father and my brother Jesus Christ because I know they have a plan for me and that it is to return to live with them. I learned this week that the only way this could happen was if our elder brother Jesus Christ died for our sins and to be resurrected. I imagine that it would have been a little scary for Jesus to do what he did but since he had complete faith in our Father he knew it was the right thing to do and as hard as it was he did it. I know that if I follow the right path that I too will be resurrected and live with Him again.

Reflection Journal week 7
Write at least two short paragraphs describing anything new that you have learned including how you learned it; mention how your life is changing or will change as a result of what you have studied this week, and include any other questions for the instructor or insights you would like to share.
This week has been very good. I was able to go to the cookie exchange at church this week and mingle with several sisters that I have felt like since this semester started I have not been able to do. I learned in my readings about the resurrection and I used setting for my study skill and I have learned to read with the thought in my mind of who? Where? And When? I didn't really study the scriptures in that way before. I focused on what the guards must have been feeling when they were guarding the tomb and knowing that no one went in or out but when the angels moved the stone Jesus's body was gone.
I reflected a lot this week on if I were a guard what would I have done? Cover it up or learn more about the Savior to know of the resurrection. I would like to think I would have done the right thing but in that time period I do not think I would have done the right thing. Thinking about the things that happen in my life right now I know that following my savior is the right thing to do but it is not always easy. I have found that praying often has helped my keep the spirit close to me so that I can make the right

Becoming Project Final Report
Becoming Project Final Report
FEDREL 211:25 Brother Mangum
By Janette Bailey
Working on my becoming project this semester has proven to be a hard journey. There have been some days that I didn’t think about working on it and then there were other days that I worked very hard on it. My project was for obedience. I read in Mathew 8:27 how the disciples were still learning about who the savior is and how amazed they were when they received blessings when they obeyed Him. This scripture helped me push forward to being obedient by reading my scriptures and talking to others about what I am learning.
I have been reading my scriptures in personal time and family time and I have found that it is easier for me to discuss my readings with my family. I also notice that it is much easier for me to understand the Sunday school lesson and to be able to answer the questions that are asked during class. I have found a study guide book that has helped me with understanding what I am reading. It basically has the scripture and then under the scripture or set of scriptures, it tells me in English what the scriptures said. I know that those thoughts are just thoughts from the author, but it has really helped my studying alone. (reference – The gospel study series second addition by David J Ridges)
I have been visiting a lot with my son (a returned missionary who has fallen away) and I have made progress with him. He still is not coming to church, but he has started to hang out with his church friends. I have been praying for him to want to come back to church. I know that he is moving in the right direction and I’m very blessed to have that knowledge. Specifically, he has been hanging out with our old Bishop who is in his early thirties and has five children. My son loves hanging out with him and his family and I know that they are a great influence on him. I know that my prayers are being answered by the fact that our old Bishop has a calling in the Stake and he still manages to find time to spend with my son. It is the best blessing.
Praying several times a day has helped me to remember Christ. I have been reading, studying, and pondering my scriptures to help me with obedience to the Lord. I know from my many teachings from church that to be obedient you need to really know Heavenly Father and learn all you can about him. Luke 11:28 says the word of God is true and it is important for those who hear it obey it. I have enjoyed learning from the New Testament this semester. I have learned that when I pray always and study my scriptures daily that I feel the spirit with me every day all day and night. I have had many opportunities to talk about Heavenly Father with my friends and family.
I’d like to share a couple of personal stories of my conversations with friends and family. The first story is a positive story. I was having lunch at work when an acquaintance walked over to my table and asked if she could join me for lunch that day. I, of course, said yes and as she was sitting down, she asked me if I was ever embarrassed about praying at work before my meal. I shared the story of when Joseph Smith was only fourteen and he started openly asking questions about which church to join and he prayed to know which church to join. I told her that by showing my faith always I will receive blessings. The following week she asked me if I could send the missionaries to her house and they are currently teaching her the lessons. I have gone over with them a couple of times and it has been very spiritual.
My second story is not as happy. I have been working on a Christmas tree farm and I asked my twin sister if she would like to work as well and she said yes but I had to give her a ride. That was fine with me because I was already going. My Sister asked me why am I LDS? I told her that I’m on a mission to learn as much as I can about Heavenly Father. She then proceeded to tell me why my church is wrong and why she “hates” Mormons. I was very hurt by this comment and it was hard to gain my composure, but I did and I told her that some of the things she was saying weren't true and that if she would just read the Book of Mormon she would understand it, that’s when she started yelling at me and stating that; that the was another thing she “hated” about the Mormons, we have a separate book. This was when I decided that she was not ready to hear the truth and I told her that we can talk about this another day when she is ready to hear me. I learned that day that not all people are ready to hear the gospel truths and it’s not a good idea to push it on them they only get upset and it only frustrates me.
Working on obedience to the Lord has been a great experience for me. I am blessed to have had this opportunity to learn what obedience is and how to incorporate it in my life. I have learned that obedience is not only studying my scriptures, but it is also meant to take the opportunity to share the gospel when it is appropriate to do so. I have a goal to continue to work on this attribute because it has helped me to open my mouth and I feel the spirit with me. I’m thankful for my Savior and all he offers to me and I’m grateful for the atonement.

Matthew 28: 11 -15
The soldiers who
were on duty guarding the tomb were in a dilemma when the angels rolled back
the large stone and Jesus' body was gone. The priests and elders conspire to
cover up the resurrection.
These scriptures
made me think of the resurrection and how the soldiers must have felt when the
body was gone and they knew the stone had not been moved. There must be a lot of confusion and since no
one could logically explain it the priests and elder felt that trying to cover
it up was the right thing to do. I
wonder if I lived at that time would I come closer to Christ? This is a difficult question because in those
days the people have to have faith because otherwise there is no other way to
explain the disappearance of the Savior.
I'm glad to live in this day where it is easier to have faith by living
the gospel every day and having a living prophet to guide us.

- Input is coming into the company
- Purchasing
- Realastate location
- Warehouse location
- Optimize the business to become as efficient as possible
- The interface between your business and your customers
- Delivering product at the right time
- Right quantity
- Right quality
Ex-sponging is one of the areas that is least understood. Business supply chain is:
- Understand what your customers really need in terms of products, in terms of timing, pricing,
- Coordinating all of the activities and processes that are required from your end suppliers and making sure everything is delivered and coordinated correctly so your customers and their customers (down the chain) get what they want or what they need when they want it or need it and at the right price.
Supply management includes
- Technology
- Organization
- People
- Equipment
- Communication
There is a really close connection with Marketing because we are trying to understand what the customer's needs (down the chain) are and how do we satisfy those needs from an operational standpoint. Also whenever a new product is developed or new services invented its not that you are developing the product you are also supplying the Supply chain
There is a close connection with engineering with product development.
One of the main goals of Supply chain is to find out how to trim out cost and to keep those low ---clear connection with finance.
Personalities to work in the supply chain:
- Analytical
- Negotiation skills (most important is communication)
- Being able to work with all different levels of people within the organization
- Networking
Don't look for the money it will materialize. Match your personality with the job you are seeking.
it's all about what excites you and what goals and aspirations do you have.
