Julie's quote from face book.
"It was freezing but we were determined to be
out on the lake anyway. Also, we had John’s family for a BBQ and I didn’t take
a single picture! I sure love being with family and our conversations. We learn
a lot about each other 🙂and our bonds grow
deeper and stronger. What a wonderful day!"

Janice said about her 70th birthday
party on May 31, 2019:
“I can’t wrap my mind around being age 70!
What a wonderful party!
All four of my children were there and
it is not that often we are all together.
Also, my sister, Eileen, and members
of her family were there which was great.
My children's spouses and many of my grandchildren were there, and
I always love being with them.
A handful of friends came from the Orem
Neighborhood we had all lived in years ago.
(I actually lived in that house 27 years.)
Thank you all for coming!
Thanks you, Vickie and Carl for hosting
this fun party."
The month of Summer is beginning...
Goodbye May...
Hello June.

This sweet little boy helped
Walt down the hall and out the door
of the Church today.
Julie said he is their neighbor.

We are so thankful for The Plan of Salvation
and the Atonement of Jesus Christ
that makes this Great Plan operational.
we pray you have had a
restful , peaceful, and spiritual
Sabbath Day...
We share these truths as our testimony to you...
Heavenly Father lives and knows us each by name. He loves us and wants us to return to Him and Heavenly Mother when we leave this mortal existence. He loves us just as we are at this very moment.
*** *** ***
Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all.
*** *** ***
Joseph Smith was foreordained to be the Prophet of the Restoration. He is the Restorer of all things.
*** *** ***
President Russell M. Nelson is the Living Prophet today for all the world.
*** *** ***
The Bible is "the Word of God as far as it is translated correctly" and is a Testament of the Divinity of Jesus Christ.
*** *** ***
The Book of Mormon is the Word of God and is Another Testament of Jesus Christ. It is the most correct book of any book on earth.
*** *** ***
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the True Church on the earth today.

Of these truths we testify in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.
