Doug is now our ward mission leader so he gets to visit with these good young missionaries on a daily basis now. This is Elder Forsythe from Southern CA and Elder Vance from Idaho. We had them over for dinner and a game of Apples to Apples Jr on Sunday. It was fun to get to know them and share experiences. We are trying to grow spiritually as a family and are praying for opportunities to share the Gospel. We love our faith and it has blessed every aspect of our lives so much; we want others to be able to enjoy the love and peace that can come into their lives by living the Gospel of Jesus Christ! I am currently the Achievement Days leader for our ward so I get to work with the girls 8-11 in helping them achieve goals, skills, and spiritual growth. Along with that I also teach the 4-5 year old children at church. It is a great privilege to serve Gods children, teaching them gospel principles. For those of you who may not know, church callings are inspired job assignments received through our Bishop. They are on a volunteer basis and could last anywhere from very temporarily to years. A "ward" is the local congregation.
