GC: "The Holy Ghost" by Elder Robert D. Hales.
I have a coupon for a 1/2 Pappa John's pizza if I order online. I order James's favorite: thin crust veggie and we go and pick it up. James gets five pieces and I get three. We are reading a new book by a new author:
This one takes place in America in the 1800's.
It is about a doctor trying to cure tuberculosis.
It is about a doctor trying to cure tuberculosis.
It rained hard in Vernon today and we even got a little hail! Around 3pm I went to see Jean Howard with my partner Kaeli Nicoll and her daughter Natalie. These are the handouts I made for the lesson:
The lesson is on nurturing families
and the handout says:
"One of the best ways to invite love and
harmony into our homes is by speaking
kindly to our family members.
Speaking kindly brings the Holy Ghost."
We were at Jeans for almost an hour and a half. Kaeli is expecting a baby in a week or so and she got to talking with Jean's granddaughter, Dakota about childbirth. Jean and I were at the table together so I read the handout to Jean and gave it to her and told her the lesson was on nurturing families. Jean is going to see her heart doctor tomorrow to see if he will give clearance to her to have surgery on her back. Something is wrong with the metal in her back reacting to her body and she is in a great deal of pain most of the time. My heart goes out to her.
Good news!
James is in alot of pain today from working on the drain in the drivewa. He did make some temple calls to remind people of our cleaning assignment tomorrow evening. He also cooked onions and squash for dinner and then fixed me some Pero. I read to him from "The Great Divorce", and "With Every Breath." I also read from The Lincoln Hypothesis.
Rita reported on Aunt Gene. She is in alot of pain.
Here are a couple of pictures in honor of Throwback Thursday:
