The Priesthood leadership was reorganized last week. Glenn Fugikawa, Thom Zambrana and Bob Bracy were released. Dale Phillips, Chris Hill and Scott Giles were set apart as the new Elders Quorum Presidency and Chris Young was set apart as the High Priest Group Leader.
There were 4 people who were asked to bear their testimony at the beginning of the meeting; Kristen Curtis, Bernard Martinez, Greg Sandoval and Scott Mitchell. They all did an amazing job!!!
After a rest hymn, the Bishop spoke. I started taking notes and about half way through his talk I thought, "Why am I taking notes? I should just send his entire talk out!" So I stopped. Here is a link to his talk:
The Bishop delivered a talk that he was inspired to give. You could feel the spirit as he spoke of the men in the ward, how much he loved them and seeing their growth in the gospel. It is easy to admire the men in our ward, from the Bishop on down!!!
With it being the 5th Sunday, we had a combined Priesthood / Relief Society meeting which Erin Caldwell taught. Erin has taught Cotillion for years and she imparted some great information to us. She did a fantastic job and we learned some great tips. Then we had cookies in the social hall where we got to practice our newly learned skills!
It was a stupendous day at church. We felt the spirit, enjoyed the fellowship and had our buckets filled for the coming week.
With much love,
