1-10-2011 Tonight was the setting apart of Peter, David and Jody Reese as full time missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We met at the Church Stake Center at 8pm with family and friends. We also were able to include Tony & Connie in Arizona on skype (LOVE skype!!) President Williams (Our Stake President) offered counsel and advice to Peter and us on being great missionaries. He said to Love the Savior, Love the people where you serve, Love your companion (easy for Dave & Jody!). to work hard, be obedient, learn the gospel - wear out the Preach My Gospel book, bear your testimony often and be all you can for the Lord. Peter was set apart first, followed by David, then Jody. The blessings were beautiful - addressing concerns that only the Lord would know. The three new missionaries then bore their testimonies and we were able spent time visitng with everyone who was there.
Family and friends - thank you for coming!
