Can any of you believe that its October already?? Where did this year go?? Everyone we speak to agrees that we scarcely had a summer this year. Our recent heat spell has received mixed emotion after our all but non existent summer. Today its raining...who knows what tomorrow will bring!!
This past weekend we were treated to a wonderful General Conference. It's always great to hear our prophet, Pres Thomas S Monson, speak....but especially wonderful during our Conference sessions. He is such a warm & genuine man...we LOVED his talks...as well as all of those who shared during this 180th Semi-Annual General Conference.
On Sunday evening, Oct 4th...we were delighted to share in the joy as Delia Torres was baptized by her husband, Emilio Torres. It was a beautiful service. Her brother-in-law, Hector Torres, gave a great talk about baptism. Sister Cathy Torres, Emilio's mother... blessed the meeting with a musical number...and Emilio's grand mother, Sister Elizabeth Ausman, spoke about the Holy Ghost. We are sooo excited to welcome Delia to our ward family. If you have not had the privilege of meeting her...please make every effort to introduce yourself to her. She is a beautiful young lady & we know she will be a great asset to our ward.
