MONDAY MEMO - May 20 - 25


Dear Sisters,

I believe in, and have gratitude for the Lord's promise "I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left,...my Spirit shall be in your heart, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up." (D&C 84:88) As I pray for you dear sisters, I want to be more angelic myself, with my words, my hands, and my faith.

Thank you for being the angels that you are in your love and service to others, in your visiting teaching callings, and in your families.

Much love,
jNae

RECOVERIES, MIRACLES and BLESSINGS!
  • Michelle is hoping to be home on Tuesday. Some dear High Priests in the ward fixed her front step and built a ramp to help her get into her home easily until she is stronger.
  • Davina continues her recovery and loves visits.
  • Marray and her 3 tiny blessings, Brighton, Blake, and Aprylia Chase are all home and doing well. Meals every other night will help her get back on her feet, establish a routine and get this all figured out. Please remember to keep your visits very brief when dropping off meals. There will be time when the babies are a little older and Marray is a little stronger to meet them. Brandon will be home this week to help her. He has a flag system set-up to let me know when to send in help ;-)
