A Great Dad

Manhole artwork. . .


Here's the temperature at 4:00 pm which doesn't include the wind chill factor. It's been a pretty cold week.


Elder Morris' glasses had both fog and frost after a short 10 minute walk from the bus to the archives building.


Thought of my dad when I saw this signature on one of the documents this week. He has figured into my mission in two major ways, 1) he taught me to have a good work ethic and to have integrity which I have applied to days when I don't feel like going to the archives, and 2) he did menial callings in the Church without a word of complaint. My mission is all about menial work. I honor my father and I'm grateful for the important things he taught me by example.


Can you spot our mission goal for baptisms in 2025? It's gigantic!! But nothing can stop the Lord from gathering His scattered people across the earth. And we are living in the latter-days so the Lord is hastening His work.


Canada Culture:
Can you see all of the gravel that's been tracked onto the bus??? It was like walking on a carpet of gravel! I've never seen a bus this bad! Gravel is thrown onto the sidewalks to improve traction when it's slippery. But then it gets tracked EVERYWHERE! For some reason, a lot more gravel has been tracked into my apartment this winter than last winter. A funny thing about gravel...last winter it was stuck in all of the treads of my shoes. This winter, there's not much tread left on my shoes so there aren't many grooves for gravel to get stuck in. Haha!
