Sundays are the best. Today, Craig directed the Dartmouth Ward choir in the Sacrament Meeting. It was a wonderful experience.
The mission has received a new senior couple. The Thackers from Orderville, Utah. They will work in the mission office. They are wonderful.
Going to church is such a wonderful blessing in my life. I know that God lives, I know that Jesus Christ is my Savior and Redeemer. I know that there is a prophet of God on the earth today. I'm grateful for those with similar knowledge that bless my life by their examples. I love my brother and sister, my children and my grandchildren- I truly want to spend eternity with you and with those who have come before and will come after. I'm so grateful for wonderful friends that enrich and uplift my life! I'm so grateful for the love in my heart that has grown for the wonderful people of Atlantic Canada. This mission has truly proven to be an answer to my prayers and I'm so grateful for all I'm learning and doing while I'm here.
The car actually started yesterday for a while and Craig was able to get to the store! See prayers are answered.
May God be with you till we meet again.

We have had a really great temple week so far. It's been nice to see a lot of youth at the temple. So grateful for those who travel far to come be in the temple. The dizziness from earlier this week has not returned, am so very grateful. It's been a very cold week here, since our car won't run if the temp is below freezing that means that we have been pretty much housebound- except for the temple. We have been blessed with wonderful neighbors, the Dela Cruz- thank goodness for their rides, others to have helped. We are getting closer to our temple shut-down-. It's so very wonderful to see all those that turn out of help clean the temple! Life is good, even if it's freezing! Spring will come . . . . . . some day!

Just finished watching the Inauguration ceremony. My prayer is for a united people be it in Canada or America.. A people who always remember and honor the God that named this continent as a land of Promise. May our promise each day be to live as He would have us live, to love others as He loves us, to always remember His only Begotten Son, who died so that we could live again.
Missed going to church yesterday. Woke up and was very dizzy, had to use both sides of the hall from bedroom to living room to stay upright. Thank goodness for the Priesthood of God which has been restored in these last days and for a husband and so many other worthy men who bear and honor this Priesthood. Because of faith, and prayer and a blessing from my hubby I was better by afternoon, just tired, so I rested as much as I could.
Had wonderful visiting teachers visit today. Am so very grateful for them.
No one is perfect, not me, not you, not President Obama, not anyone. So I pray for the leaders of nations and governments around the world- that they will be led in all they do by a loving Heavenly Father. That they will serve those who they lead with honor, virtue and righteousness.

It has been a great Thursday. Got up this morning to the 5" on snow that fell yesterday, spent some time shoveling it- it was nice and light snow this time, not wet and heavy, almost like Utah snow. Hubby woke up and came out and finished the job- I have such a great guy!!! Wrote a letter to Elder Josh Simonson yesterday and e-mailed it to him. It was a wonderful evening at the temple. We have changed to just one session on Thursday, but are actually getting more patrons out and getting more accomplished than when we had 2 sessions. It was "warm" enough that the car decided to be nice and run today!! Another one of those tender mercies from Heavenly Father! President and Sister Robinson are the best and it such a terrific opportunity to serve with them and to serve in the House of the Lord. We have learned so very much from being in the temple and from being there with the wonderful patrons and workers.
Gonna try and talk to my granddaughter tonight without the affects of sleeping pill. Daeja we love you so very much, we miss you and can't wait to give you a hug in person.
Hope it has been a great day for all of you too.

Today has been interesting. We went back to the temple today, that was wonderful. Such a peaceful, wonderful place to be. It started snowing while we were there. It is still snowing, looks like 3 + inches outside, and its still coming down. Our car still doesn't like the cold! Grateful for the Dela Cruz for helping us out! Even more snow is called for in tomorrow's weather forecast, and some really cold temp's too. We cooked some spaghetti for 2 of the Elders here. Craig took it over to them as one is sick. Such a blessing to be able to serve others! My wonderful hubby cleaned up the kitchen for me today, after 2 days of cooking for the elders- sure glad that feeding a family of 9 taught me how to feed a growing army of Elders! Love you guys so much and may God bless you always wherever you are serving in God's vineyard.
