Olsen Family Mission Statement

Who we are: 

We are active, optimistic and compassionate people, joined by our belief in Jesus and our love for one another.  

What we do: 

1.      We pray for one another and others in need, for our prayers accomplish much.

2.      We count our blessings and give thanks to God, for gratitude is the doorway to God’s presence and a defense against pride and discontentment.

3.      We seek wisdom, for it saves us time and heartache and improves our quality of life.

4.      We choose our words carefully, for they express our character and shape our future.

5.      We count costs before making decisions, for we live with the consequences of our actions.

6.      We honor our obligations and keep our promises, for this upholds our good name, which is finer than silver and gold.

7.      We strive to always act with integrity, for this is how we respect ourselves and others. 

8.      We ask forgiveness of God in the name of Jesus when we sin, for this rights us before Him and restores our peace. We ask forgiveness of others when we sin against them, for this allows them to trust us again.

9.      We develop our talents and follow our callings, for these are our contributions to society.

10.  We love one another, celebrating our unity and honoring our differences, for this is how a family thrives.
