The Last Day of January 2010

Yesterday was Sunday (I'm writing this on Monday) and that means Missionary Correlation Meeting and then Branch Correlation Meeting beginning at 8:15.
Sacrament meeting begins at 10 and the last meeting of the day is over at 1.

Our Stake President was visiting yesterday and doing recommend interviews, of which I was one. It was so nice for him to be here because that is one less trip to the big city for the members of our branch.

After our last meeting we had a potluck attended by many and all were well fed. Then came the big event of the day. . . two convert baptisms! It is always a tremendous thrill to witness a convert baptism and see them rise up out of the water clean and pure. It helps those of us who have been baptized for many years to relive that moment in our lives. After our new sister's confirmation I had the honor of welcoming her into Relief Society. She is going to be a wonderful asset to our organization. I'm anxious to serve with her.

All in all it was a busy day filled with the spirit, I absolutely loved it. It's good to serve the Lord and our mortal brothers and sisters. What better thing could we do with our time?

Have a lovely day wherever in the world you are.

Your Sunday sounds like if was a very full day. How exciting to have baptisms!
Our church time is now at 1-4...not my favorite
They called me to be the Ward Web Site Administrator. That works perfect because I can do it from home no matter how I feel.

Hey, that sounds like a great calling with your health situation being what it is.
Has Jan told you what her new calling is? Canning specialist. That would be a great calling, think of all the info she'll have. We can call with questions any time day or night, yahoo!
I hope you're doing well today, take good care.
