Hi Gang, This week has been very typical as far as being busy. We have much to do and find ourselves prioritising things more to get the most important things (people) first. We did alot of traveling also which takes time. We took the Elders from Carthage to Utica for Return and Report on Friday, that's an all day trip, 0530 to 1900 hrs. Saturday we drove to Palmyra for the Horton's Endowment and Sealing. They were both soldiers, he was an inactive member from Utah and she joined the church last year. When they had the baby she got out of the army, he is due to deploy to Iraq on the 8th of June, his 3rd time there. He is a combat engineer by trade an E6 who will make E7 while on deployment. We have been teaching them the temple preparation lessons and they are a great couple. Thrilled about the baby of course. The sealing was very special with their 3 week old son on the alter. We will be going to Palmyra temple next week also to take a YSA we have been teaching the temple preparations lessons too, is getting her endowments. The grove is so beautiful this time of year, we can't help but stop by and see it each time we go down there, it is only about a 1/2 block away from the temple. Is has definitely become one our most precious places here, we will surely miss it. Mom got her stitches out on thursday and everything looks great. The work is going well of course and the Lord seems to put us in the right places at the right time it still amazes us how we meet inactive members all the time. Summer brings some interesting challenges for the army, lots of families move out and new ones move in. A little more upheavel than we would like or can keep up with. We love the work and the people are just great. Keep up the great work you are doing with our grandchildren. Love Mom and Dad
