fyi

In case you didn't know Bishop M. is moving to Queens. Today they release Bishop M. and W was released from being a counselor. Our new bishop is Bishop Anderson; first counselor Brother Yau; second counselor is Brother Johnson.

It was a really great experience and our love of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Bensonhurst Saints has increase exponentially. We have received so many kindnesses and love from those around us.

So many times in Church when I was wresting with three unruly children I had someone come up to aid me (or at least offer), which I needed greatly--even when I refused help at the time--and probably should not have.

I personally learned that following the Spirit is vital--even when it may not seem to make perfect sense at the time. When you sense the need that someone may possibly need help that it is the time to really reach out and help them, even if those you know may think it unnecessary.

I know the Lord loves us, His children, so dearly. He has a plan for us. Many times he sends us as his angels to help those in need. I hope that I can always be ready to reach out to serve those in need.

So are you and W breathing a huge sigh of relief? Does this mean at least a little more free time for the both of you? Thanks for all your service and sacrifice!

Thanks again for all your husband's help, and for the ride to Church on Sundays (even though it was a bit of a challenge sometimes). I enjoyed our chats and our children's friendships. We will miss you terribly! I hope you can come visit us sometime.
