God's Army




There are times when I look at the pictures Scott sends home and can only guess what they are depicting. I have decided, so it must be true, that these pictures are depicting God's army. Our Saviour and Redeemer is the Commander-in-Chief and our missionaries are His army. What do you think?

New District Leader



Today we received our weekly email from Scott. We thought there was a strong possibility he would be transferred. He had been serving in the Farmington area with Elder Hadfield for 12 weeks. We were surprised to receive the following information:


"No I did not get transferred, but there was a change, but not with elder Hadfield either. We got a call. I’m the new district leader. I was really really shocked. I'm kind of young.
Yes, there is still snow. My goals for this month are to help the Africans and anyone else that come into my path, and to be the best DL I can, and to follow the rules."


I don't know why I thought the "I'm kind of young" comment was humorous. Scott is the same age as most Elders. We were excited for his new opportunity and to know that he will continue to serve in Farmington with Elder Hadfield. They love the ward, the Bishop, their investigators, and they are working well together.

Please continue to keep them, and all of our missionaries, in your prayers!
