Happy Mother's Day to me!




Lucky break for me! Calling cards did not work! We were lucky that a good member in Gavin's branch had a computer and a Skype account! Elder Rice is alive and well and his mama is very happy!



Some things that I especially loved about talking with Gavin was the growth of his testimony. He shared with us how much the gospel means to him in his life. That he really never "got it" before! He has loved seeing the changes in peoples lives as they have come to accept the gospel. He said it is something very real and powerful. He plans on making good changes in his 'post mission' life and never wants to take his membership in the Church for granted!

Gavin's Plaque Scripture

Alma 37:37

"Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye should be lifted up at the last day."
