Hello All

Hello Dear Family,

I too, thought this communicating with one another would be a chance for all of us to stay in touch and to learn of those little things that we might tell one person but the other never knew about it. I'm excited that Carly has put this together and that all of us can update each of us about what's going on in your lives.

Last night, Todd and I had the Elders and an investigator over for dinner and family home evening. We had a wonderful time, as we always do with the missionaires. Todd gave the lesson on scripture reading since this individual is just learning the importance of reading daily. I made up some scripture ribbons (kids-you may remember when you were younger, that I made some and I still have mine, how bout you?) and they loved them--they never saw them before.

I got the new "Ensign" the other day and there is a quote on the front cover that I really like and would like to share with you--something that we all could benefit, remembering.....

"when you read the scriptural accounts of His life and ministry, you realize how much Jesus Christ exemplied love. He healed and blessed. He looked past human fraility to see the heart--offering hope, healing, and forgiveness through His ministry, teachings and great atoning sacrifice".

Love,
Mom and Alicia
