So Long, Farewell...

So Mom and Dad had their official "farewell" address to the members of the Stoddard Ward congregation on January 20, 2013. From what they told me about the meeting, it was a wonderful experience. I know that they were nervous and spent a lot of time preparing their talks. Mom spoke first on "The Tender Mercies of Christ" based on Elder Bednar's talk. Tender Mercies April 2005 Conference Address Then Jason Nelson sang "Because I Have Been Given Much".  This was very special because he wrote an additional verse. Jason is an amazing vocalist and currently sings with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Dad spoke on Divine Nature based on the scripture 2 Peter 1:4-7 .

Mom and Dad said that they didn't take any pictures of that day so if anyone has any they'd like to post, please send them to me.

Thanks!
