Called to Serve


Today I had the pleasure of helping the Stake serve lunch to the missionaries from the Utah Ogden Mission. It is transfer day for the whole mission so they gather to one location for lunch and meetings. For the next 6 months we will be serving them lunch every 6 weeks. What great young men and women out serving the Lord!!! They sang for us and brought most of us mom's of missionaries to tears singing "Called to Serve". What fun! I'm grateful for the perks of my calling in the Relief Society.










These are some of the great sisters that gave of their time and energy to feed the Lord's army.










It felt in a small way like I was a little bit closer to Elder Ben Jacobson. Thanks mom's in the Washington Spokane Mission for taking care of our missionary.

What a fun opportunity - especially with Ben out on his mish. What a sight to see all of them together. ...a powerful group!

Diane! It's so great to hear from you (and of course I remember you)!

So Ben is in Spokane?? That's really neat. I lived there once upon a time. I'm pretty excited for James to come home in TWO days!!! I'm sure you know exactly what I'm talking about.

Well time sure flies and it's going to be fun to keep up with your blog and keep up with the family. Tell everyone hi (if they remember me that is)!
