Hearts of Determination A Letter to Elder Hawley 6/12/17

Hey Elder!

How are you doing? How has your week been? Are you surviving the heat? Our weather has been hot, but the first part of this week will be cooler and rainy. Thank goodness!!!

Our sacrament meeting was really good. The girls who graduated-Aubrey, Sariah, and Corinne spoke on seminary and their testimony. Megan and Duncan sang a duet, "If You Could Hie to Kolob" and Joey spoke on patience for his homecoming. The song ended up being one of Joey's favorite songs from his mission he said. Megan and Duncan didn't even know that...pure inspiration haha. Bishop Garner also spoke at the end and did a great job tying all the topics together.
 
Not much happened last week. Trying to keep the kids busy since they are out of school. Megan hung with friends and went on a couple of dates. Malia went to Lagoon a couple of times with different friend groups. Dad bought Miles a baseball helmet. He likes to play baseball in our back yard. He is getting good at hitting the ball, and is determined. The ball went over the fence twice!

A thought to ponder that we heard in church..."Christ is our most trustworthy friend". Remember to have patience and listen to the Lord...D&C 50:24 "That which is of God is light; and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light; and that light growth brighter and brighter until the perfect day."

President Spencer W. Kimball said in the Washington Temple dedicatory prayer, "Give us, we pray, hearts of determination, that we, thy people, may make such sacrifices as are necessary; that our sons may live righteously through their growing years and strive for spiritual excellence to be worthy to take the gospel to the nations of the world."

We Love you tons! Keep up the great work. Have a fantastic week.

Love,
Your Family
