Grandma Boot's Ten Rules to Live By




1  Live a life of truth in all things so that you can return to live with Heavenly Father.

2  Pay always an honest tithing and offerings 

3  Live all the commandments to the best of your ability

4  Don't be idle, work hard and do it 100%

5  Love everybody : God the most, then your family, friends and yourself

6  Don't hate your enemies - love them

7  Study each day the scriptures  and read other church books

8  Try always to be a good example

9  Don't become worldly. Don't pay attention too much to fads. This doesn't bring happiness.

10  Live in the world and not be of it.
