As much as I enjoyed the sun and warmth and burgers and fun of visiting St. George, the REAL reason for the visit was this . . .
. . . to be there when my parents were set apart as missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This is their first mission, but considering their enthusiasm and selfless, generous hearts, I doubt it will be their last.
I am so thankful for their example to me and my family. My kids KNOW that their grandparents love the Lord, love their family, and are willing to make great sacrifices for what they believe in. They see both sets of grandparents devoting their lives to serving others - my parents on a full-time mission and Nathan's parents working every single week in the temple. What a legacy they are leaving for their grandkids!
Thanks, Mom & Dad, for your example & service! We love you! The Heber Valley Camp Mission is so lucky to have you.
BTW, here is a link to their blog: MissionS
