Christmas Day

"Glory to God in the highest,

and on earth peace, good will

toward men." Luke 2:14

 This was our Christmas day dinner with

the other temple missionaries.

Here we are playing the left and right game.

It was a fun evening.

Brigham Young's Home

My Joy was full at the 

privilege of shaking the 

hand of the Prophet of God

and receiving the sure testimony

by the spirit of prophesy, that he was

all that any man could believe him to

be as a prophet of God.

Brigham Young's testimony of Joseph Smith

 Today we visited Brigham Young's home.  Pictures

of the kitchen and living areas.

Warsaw

"and they did cry mightily

to God; yea, even all the

day long." Mosiah 21:14

sides of the road. 

Sunday

On the way home from church

in Mt. Pleasant, we stopped at

the park and got a picture of 

the temple across the river.

It is always a breath taking 

sight to see.

 Then we got a picture of this school built in 1830

We had dinner at President Smith's house.

The Barth's, the Taylor's, Smith's and Us.

A very pleasant Sunday.

Baptism and Christmas lights

Rachel Davis was baptized

2 Dec. 2017.  She helped her

husband, Aaron, return to 

activity.  She was baptized 

by her father-in-law, Mike Davis.

She has a beautiful testimony of the

truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.

 That night we drove around the lights

that were set up in Ft. Madison park

Joy to The World

There was a big full moon sitting on the Temple.
