Today's Thought

"Neither Satan nor any other power can weaken or destroy your growing character. Only you could do that through disobedience. That is why Satan is so intently focused on tempting you to make decisions that will undermine your character. Satan is an accomplished master at making devastating choices appear attractive, even reasonable. So be careful. At this critical time of life you will be faced with many choices. The decisions you will make will profoundly affect life now and for eternity. Make them wisely and prayerfully."

Leavin' on a jet plane.....

 I built a song for Jake....ok maybe John Denver helped with the tune.
Sing it with me.....(clearing throat)

All his bags are packed and ready to go,
And leave us all on American soil,
So he can go and teach in Uruguay.
He’s armed with faith and courage to find,
The souls that seek the peace of mind,
That comes from knowledge of our Heavenly home.

Our Father who art in Heav’n
Will turn our boy into a man.
And keep him safe so he can do the work.
Oh he’s leavin’ on a jet plane
Two years he’ll be in Uruguay.
So wave to Jake and pray.

Elder Olsen 1st missionary companion.
Work hard and you will be fine!
We will see you in two years!

Mom! Can I have his room and his phone?
