D&C 109:69-72
69 Have mercy, O Lord, upon his wife and children, that they may be exalted in thy presence, and preserved by thy fostering hand.
70 Have mercy upon all their immediate connections, that their prejudices may be broken up and swept away as with a flood; that they may be converted and redeemed with Israel, and know that thou art God.
71 Remember, O Lord, the presidents, even all the presidents of thy church, that they right hand may exalt them, with all their families, and their immediate connections, that their names may be perpetuated and had in everlasting remembrance from generation to generation.
72 Remember all thy church, O Lord, with all their families, and all their immediate connections, with all their sick and afflicted ones, with all the poor and meek of the earth; that the kingdom, which thou hast set up without hands, may become a great mountain and fill the whole earth;
My hands and arms heart so much I was not able to lift them to get my clothes on or to do my hair. I went back to bed on the recliner.
James went and took notes for me. It was high council Sunday.
Brother Peeler taught gospel doctrine. James said he made this comment when he started: "I'm going to need help from all of you because Sister Lambson isn't here. She knows more about the Book of Mormon than anyone I know." It is so sweet that he thinks that about me. I really don't think I know as much as he thinks I do but it was still nice of him.
After church I got a text from our neighbor, Kathy Crane.
Hi Karen, How are you doing? I am making Cafe Rio green burros for dinner. Would you like to have some?
I thanked Kathy and told her yes I would and that she was too good to me. We got six burros and two small pints of Baskin & Robbins
strawberry cheesecake ice cream. Everything was delicious. We have the best neighbors!
Kim taught her last gospel doctrine class today. She was released and called as a Primary teacher. Being a Primary teacher is just as important as being a gospel doctrine teacher and she loves Primary.
Brian is now the Elder's Quorum president.
It rained and thundered tonight. Tom does not like the thunder.
James and I took a little drive this afternoon to see if we could find where the Jensen's live. The Jensen's are a new family in our ward.
They live in the new white house just off of 3144. I told James that I loved this house. We are excited to have a new family with kids in our ward. Brother Jensen is a doctor who works from home. I'm not sure exactly how that works.
When we return home the horses were waiting for us in the garage.
I talked with Janna Grombach today about the auction. She said that Laren Ellsworth bought James's rifle and his wife Kristy bought Lois's quilt. Laren bought the gun for $300 and Kristy the quilt for $200.
