Despain Visit Pictures and More




I think these pictures speak for themselves!  It was great to have the Despains here this weekend.

They did head home midafternoon today.  Later, I went to the yearly stake high priests quorum meeting.  It was unique in that we had all four stake presidents that have served since our stake was formed in 1981 speak to us tonight.  Two themes.  The first speaker, President Lewis introduced the Alma 13 part of the theme, particularly verses 3 and 4 which discusses the calling of high priests.  President Kerry Gubler then spoke on the second theme, that he wouldn't trade his experience serving with his wife as a senior missonary for anything, even though he wasn't ready to retire and didn't see how he could do it yet.  He and his wife knew it was what the Lord wanted them to do.  He thought there could be 50-100 in our quorum that could begin serving within six months.  That seems like a breathtaking number, but wow what a blessing that would be ...

It was a great meeting -- all in an hour, wow.
