Winning the War against Evil

"You were entrusted to come to the earth in these last days to do again what you did before---to once again choose good over evil."

This quote comes from Elder James J. Hamula talk in the general Priesthood meeting directed to the youth of the Church. Everyone should go and read his talk. It is on page 50 of the November Ensign.

If we as adults do not take a stand against evil, how can we expect our children to. We are quickly being taken over by evil. If we don't stand up and be counted on the Lords side then we are on the wrong side. This is not a time to be Lax. We are now in the closing hours of this great war. I hope you will all read this talk and I hope you will stand up for your children and choose the Lord's side.

A New Picture of Me.


I just thought that everyone would like to see an older picture of me. I'm not as young or trim as I used to be. I forgot that I had this picture and I found it the other day while I was looking for something else. Well here it is. Don't laugh to hard at me......

I can't wait until I get my youth back after we die. That will be so great.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY


Everyone have a very Happy Valentine's Day! I'll be thinking about you.

My New Calling

Today I started my new calling in the church. I'm back at it. I am now working in the Family History Center as a specialist. It is just a small FHC. It has 8 computers and 4 film readers and 1 microfiche reader. I hope the microfiche reader is a good one because I have a bunch of fiche coming to the center to read. I am really excited about looking for more of our ancestors. Have any of you in the younger generation that have Temple Recomends thought about going to the Temple and doing endowments for our new ancestors we have just found. It will be a great opportunity and will give you an idea about how important genealogy is.
