3 Nephi 26:3

The Power of Sustaining Faith
President Henry B. Eyring
"In the priesthood quorum and in the family, increased faith to sustain each other is the way we build the Zion the Lord wants us to create. With His hep, we can and we will. It will take learning to love the Lord with all our heart, might, mind, and strength and to love each other as we love ourselves. As we grow in that pure love of Christ, our hearts soften. That love will humble us and lead us to repent. Our confidence in the Lord and in each other will grow. And then we will move toward becoming one, as the Lord promises we can."
James has caught seven mice in eight days in his "mouse bucket."
Teresa Smith, a sister who attends our ward in the summer time, has a sister lunch once a month on a Monday. Today is that day and I have not been to any of the lunch dates this summer. I promised I would come today.
I left a little before 10:30 and picked up my friend Catherine on the way. Catherine and I headed up the hill to pick up Jean Howard. Catherine immediately bonded with the husky dog on the porch. She used to raise, breed, and race huskies when she lived in northern California.
We visited with Tom while waiting for Jean to get ready. I think she forgot we were coming.
I introduced Jean and Catherine and we were on our way.
We arrived at Los Corrales in Show Low right around 11:30, the allotted time. We walked in with Sister Tesarek. There were 9 or so sisters already seated. We all sat at a long table which isn't really conducive for visiting except for those sitting around you. I sat between Catherine and Jean with no one across from us.
Catherine and I ordered the super enchilada plate and Jean ordered two beef tacos. She doesn't really like Mexican food.
When our food came out Catherine and I both said our own blessing on our food. Just as I took my first bite, someone announced that Teresa was going to say the blessing on the food. Michelle Tesarek looked at me and said, " Yes done there, you with the food in your mouth." I thought it was funny, and smiled.
For dessert Teresa passed around a container with blueberry yogurt covered pretzels. I took one tiny pretzel because that was what she had done. No wonder she is so skinny.
These are the sisters who attended: Jean, Catherine, Michelle T., Rosie L., Amy R., Kim A., Barbara A., Teresa S., Charlotte S. and her son, Paula J., and myself.
I took James half of my food home and he seemed to really appreciate it even though he had already had lunch.
I spent the afternoon doing those things I normally do, walking, working on books and blogging.
This evening James and I watched the newest Hallmark movie.
