We had a high councilman and his daughter speak in sacrament meeting today. Her name was Brooklyn Brown and she spoke on infinite worth and overcoming adversity. From "Once upon a time to happily everafter" requires some adversity in between. Jesus Christ understands all that we are going through.
Morgan Brown of the high council reminded us of our challenge from the stake president to memorize the family proclomation. He also gave an outstanding talk on charity and used several examples from the Book of Mormon. He admonished us to read and study Moroni 7 where Moroni reminds us that charity is the pure love of Christ.
The lesson in Sunday school taught by Brother Wilhelm was taken from Alma 5-7 where Alma asks: "Have ye Received His Image in Your Countenance?"
The lesson in Relief Society was on missionary work and was taught by Tamara Applegate.
After our meetings we came home and had some lunch. James opened his father's day card from me and his gift, the two Robert Downey, Jr. Sherlock Holmes movies. We took a nap and then got ready and left for the valley. We stopped in Chandler so James could get his truck and to pick up Michael and then we headed for Sheraton Desert Oasis in Scottsdale where Alex was waiting for us. We have one week here in our timeshare and we are staying in rooms 1055 and 1056. Sheri's family stayed last night and we will stay tonight and tomorrow night. Tomorrow we will have Ruby's birthday party here.
