Mount Up!

Tuesday- We had our P-Day today, so we went to Fort Monroe. Their museum is closed on Mondays, so this was a tender mercy. It was so great. Fort Monroe has a lot of history, such as this was where Jefferson Davis was held while awaiting trial. We had dinner with the Pierces. 

Hey, what's down there?

Wednesday- We had back to back lesson's at the church with a couple of less actives. The first was David Palmer. We got to know him a little bit, then shared about eternal families. The second was Shequan Bernard. We shared the Restoration with him. After that, we had dinner with the Chase's. They are so dang cool. We went and saw Deante after that.

Thursday- We were on our way to an appointment when we stopped and talked to a guy named Gary. We taught him the Restoration and said we could come back. We were able to talk to a lot of people today, but other than Gary, it was pretty quiet.

Friday- We took Deante a bible and asked him to come with us to a couple of lessons. We weren't able to see anybody, but we had a fun time. We had dinner with Jim and he took us to Firehouse Subs. That place is so good. 

Saturday- We had a lesson on the priesthood with Deante in the Turley's home. Deante is getting interviewed on Tuesday!!! We had another lesson with Gary. He read the restoration pamphlet and said that he really liked it. We had dinner with Sister Kim and Brother Miani came with us.

Sunday- We had ward conference. President Hamilton gave a great talk on the new stake goals. We had a combined 3rd hour with the High Priests and President Hamilton talked about what it takes to make multi-generational families happen. We went out and saw Brother Pochop in the evening. He is cruising through the Book of Mormon!! He got from 2 Nephi 2 to Alma 13 in a week and a half!!!

I hope everybody has a happy Turkey Day. I am thankful for a loving Savior who is always concerned for the One. His love is so broad and yet so personal. I am thankful that during our times of grief and pain, He's there to lift our burdens and encourage us to move on. I am thankful for the opportunity I have to serve my Lord and my God. What are you thankful for?
