Recife, Brazil
101st operating temple
Dedicated: 15 December 2000 by
Gordon B. Hinckley

Alma 15:5-29
* Why do you think Zeezrom's guilt led him to suffer both spiritually and physically?
* Whose help did Zeezrom seek?
Why do you think he sent for Alma and Amulek?
* Why do you think Zeezrom needed to exercise faith in Jesus Christ and His Atonement to be healed?
* What evidence do you see that Zeezrom repented and received the Lord's mercy?
* Through our faith in Jesus Christ we can be heaed and strengthened.
DC 88:25-35
32-35, Those who will to abide in sin remain filthy still;
How does the earth abide a Celestial law?
* "There are combustible elements in abundance and heat enough to consume man worlds like ours, whenever the torch is applied. Here we are told, that the earth will abide 'the power by which it is quickened; it will abide the fire and come out of the flames, quickened and purified, like gold out of the refiner's fire, or a beautiful vessel of potters' clay out of the fiery furnace (v.26). In this sanctified state it will be the residence of celestial beings, resurrected and inhabiting the same bodies that they had here, quickened by celestial glory (v.28). For each individual will receive the glory by which he is quickened. (vv. 29-31).
General Conference
The Language of the Gospel
Valeri V. Cordon
" Powerful teaching is extremely important to preserve the gospel in our families, and it requires diligent effort. when will daily scripture study and family prayer happen? It will happen when parents take the scriptures in hand and, with love, invite the family to gather together to study. It is difficult to see this study happening in any other way. Don't wait until it's too late!"


When James got up this morning he said he saw a coyote out in the field with the cows. I begged him to do something about it. I am not a big cow fan but I couldn't stand the thought of that coyote attacking one of the calves.  I saw him get his rifle and head upstairs.  In a few minutes he was back and said the coyote had gone. Thank goodness. Lucky for Mr. Coyote that he ran away.

When James went outside to work he put a jacket on because it felt cold to him. It is 60 degrees outside.  

Another trip into town today.  The first place we went today was to Aliberto's for our tacos.  Afterwards it was Walmart again. Walmart was crowded with people and the shelves were bare.


This is what happens in the summer time.

I got the movie Moana today, some ink cartridges, and supplies for my Primary party tomorrow.  It seems like I spend more on non-food items than I do on food.

When we get home James works outside until his equipment breaks down again. He doesn't finish setting posts.  He is quite discouraged. 

More pictures from San Diego.

Too bad Rowan couldn't be there too.

And one from San Antonio:

These two went to the temple today 
to do baptisms.

Lola couldn't decide which outfit to wear to
