From near where we live, as you look up towards the center of the island of
Tahiti, you see the Diadem, or crown, which is a series of mountain peaks on
Tahiti.
Today in her talk at church, Grandma teared up a bit as she
shared with the ward how proud she was of her grandson, Josh, who was ordained
today as a Diacre, or Deacon. Some look
at this as one of the normal steps that a young man goes through as he grows up
in the church. In reality it is one of
several important peaks that he climbs as he follows the covenant path, and shows
himself worthy and willing to serve the Lord and His children.
It would be fun to have a current picture of Josh to post
here. Maybe one of the Smiths can add
it.
We love being on this covenant path with all of you and each of us working towards our own crowns of glory. It would be great if we could all gather for
each of these summit experiences. Even
though circumstances do not allow that, we rejoice with you in all of your accomplishments and in the knowledge that this path leads us to be together
with our Father in Heaven.
