Mission Reunions

A few of us D.C. V.C sisters got together in Draper at Angelica Benson's house. It was so nice to see some of the girls I served with in Washington D.C. We really had fun serving the Lord together.

I don't think we could ever get a dog until Eve gets a little older. I had to watch her carefully when she was with the dog because she kept pinching and twisting the dog's skin.

This beautiful couple was Mark's mission president and wife. He means so much to Mark. He has played a very significant role in Mark's life. It was so nice to see Mark reunite with some of the Elders he served with.

Mark and his companion Jeff.

Eve just tickled his heart.

Mark was so excited to see him and get some advice from his former mission president.

Juanita's Conversion Story

I feel that Heavenly Father has blessed me with the desire to play softball. The fact that the Lord was guiding me to play softball became more evident to me when I was offered a scholarship to play ball at BYU-Hawaii. The thought of attending BYU-Hawaii just seemed right and good at the time so I attended college there. My first year in college I was so excited to learn, play, and party. I discovered real soon that the students who attended the university had fun without drinking. I also discovered that the people were faithful and they had a strong sense of purpose and Identity. This compelled me to go on a spiritual search. I decided to take the lessons from the missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As I took the lessons I was taught things that I heard before and things that were new to me. Such as the Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith. These were things that were a challenge for me to believe. So I took these challenges up to the Lord and I asked him if the Book of Mormon is the word of God and if Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I'm so delighted to share with you that I do know that the Book of Mormon is true and that the Prophet Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that it's true because of the power of the Holy Spirit, because of these truths and much more I decided to be baptized and serve the Lord. Getting baptized was the best decision I ever made. It's because of this choice that I enjoy the blessing of life today. The church is true and I find myself indebt to the Lord forever.
