A Letter From Dad to Elder Hawley 7/16/17

Hey Elder,

So how was your week? We had a very busy week. I went to Stake Priest Camp. Layne read your letter to the boys. It was perfect and went right along with the devotional they had that night. You are setting a great example back here about missionary work. It is amazing how much good can come from our actions. The Lord can make so much out of our measly efforts, it is awesome. We studied a lot out of Preach My Gospel at Priest Camp. I really got a lot out of page 121. You are an inspiration to me and I love getting your letters and sharing in your experiences. It makes me want to do better and work harder!

Malia spoke in church about girls camp along with other girls and leaders. Their theme was SHINE...See yourself in the temple, Help others, In everything give thanks, Never give up, and Enjoy being you. She gave a really good talk and spoke about many camp experiences she had. She also referenced three scriptures that she learned. Luke 1:37, 1 Nephi 3:7, and James 1:5-6. Good ones for you to read and ponder this week.

Have a great week! Enjoy this time in your life. It goes by quick and you only get one chance at it. 

We Love you and pray for you always. 

Love, Dad
