Dear Elder Raven:
We were so excited to hear about the Lopez Santos Family getting baptized… what a thrill. We pray that they will continue to be strengthened in the faith. I will put their name on the prayer roll this Wednesday when I go to the temple. We loved seeing the pictures. Along with the young mother you are teaching, Lizeth. We pray for your investigators as we pray for you and your companion. Joshua and James really get a kick out of knowing that you know another family with their last name. They are so cute when they think about that.
Our Scripture from the Idaho Meridian Temple Presidency – 1 Nephi 11:2
2 – And the Spirit said unto me: Behold, what desirest thou?
Ponder – If asked by the Spirit as was Nephi – What would be your answer? (No Sunday School answers.) (Notice where the question was asked, and the answer given)
Yesterday we celebrated Valeda’s birthday and had Tammy’s family along with Grandma Joan celebrate with us. In the evening we had the Come Follow Me Lesson covering Matt. 8-9 and Mark 2-5. As you know these cover many of the miracles of Christ. Grandma Joan stayed for the FHE lesson. It is wonderful having her share her testimony and conviction of the restored Gospel. Do you remember the acronym WWJD (What Would Jesus Do)? Well the lesson shared an additional acronym HWLF (He Would Love First). Grandpa and I want to find both bracelets and wear them as a reminder to Follow the Savior’s example every day! The Come Follow Me lessons have been such a great blessing in our lives.
It was truly heartwarming to know that Brady’s priesthood quorum included him in their ski trip last Saturday. Tammy said that the YM president bore his testimony in church yesterday and said how the Come Follow Me Program has strengthened the YM in their ward. He said that the first time Brady attempted go down the hill that he fell 50 times (I hope that was an exaggeration but perhaps not) but that the boys were right there with him helping him up until finally Brady was able to ski on his own. Brady was so excited when he got home and thrilled that he could do it. Reminded me of your letter Fall 7 times get up 8. So so thankful for Brady’s YM leaders and priesthood quorum members.
Grandpa only has ONE more radiation treatment (March 5th). We need to figure out a way to celebrate. He is doing really well. A bit tired more than usual, but thank Heaven he was able to do the treatments before spring farming starts. WE LOVE YOU so much, Kyle, and pray for your safety and well-being. I love being in the temple and hear the temple workers pray for missionaries and realize that they are praying for our wonderful grandson YOU!!! Love always and forever, Gpa & Gma Schulthies
