          Only one ward meets in our building right now although we have heard rumors that a division is in the works; so our meeting schedule stayed the same—9:00 to 12:00—when the New Year rolled around.  There was another family confirmed today in Sacrament Meeting and it never ceases to touch my heart to see new people embracing the Gospel. 

The enthusiasm for bearing testimonies is great and the Bishop always has to stand near the end of the meeting and let people know that there is only time for those who are currently seated up in front to bear their testimonies.  Otherwise they would just keep coming and coming.   

I still play a keyboard for Relief Society every week and for the opening hymn in Sunday School if someone gets the keyboard set up in time.  I just hope I’m not displacing someone who needs the experience and opportunity to play.

Glade had a High Priest Group Meeting this afternoon in the residence building.  It has been quite a while since they met.  The Group Leader has been gone for a while and then was out of commission with the dengue fever for at least three weeks.

It was hard to miss another family milestone today with the blessing of little Eloise Mara.  But we know that Heavenly Father is blessing our family each day and we are happy to be here doing the His work.

We send you all our love.  Have a great week!
