Perfection Interrupted – Saturday, October 10, 2026 | Registration

A black and white photo of a man and a woman posing a couple. Offered by Wendy Ulrich

Doctrine and Covenants 128:18 declares, “For we without [our ancestors] cannot be made perfect; neither can they without us be made perfect.” As symbolized in vicarious ordinances, our ancestors may also benefit vicariously when our resilience, repentance, and forgiveness help interject healing, peace, and hope into their earthly story – expanding the reach of the irreplaceable redemptive power of Jesus Christ in their lives. And in ours.

This Sixteen Stones seminar will help us: 1) Identify and interrupt unconscious questions and emotional patterns inherited from the past; 2) Connect more fully with our deepest values and dreams now; 3) Prepare rising generations with more resilience, creativity, and faith to tackle the future.

As we take on the challenge of our ancestors’ unmetabolized grief, unfaced fears, unanswered questions, and unmet dreams, we are all freer to build on their – and our – hard-won strengths and wisdom as well. I believe our deceased ancestors, and our Savior, are eager to help us with this challenge.

Retreat Location: 1030 E 300 N, Alpine, UT 84004
Date: Saturday, October 10, 2026
Time: 09:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Cost: $195 for individuals, including lunch.
