We’re going to have a big shake up at church today, with many callings being changed. Something like this always seems to invigorate attitudes and energy.
Jenn and I will also be taking someone to church that I met yesterday with the missionaries. His name is ***. It’s always a little weird taking a virtual stranger to church, but it always feels good too.
Yesterday felt very satisfying. I helped out with the young women’s activity at the temple in the morning, helped the missionaries with an appointment in the afternoon, and went to dinner with *** in the evening.
Dinner was so good. It seems like *** has to be a chef. He seems so passionate about it. *** is walking now. He was very cute. Spending time with him made me feel more excited for baby ***.
We ended the day with a soak in the hot tub, which is always nice.
Today we have the *** baby blessing to attend after our own church meetings. And I hope to meet with some brothers for ministering interviews on short notice. That’s about it.

for Elder’s quorum today we will be talking about Elder Budge’s general conference talk “Seek Him with all your Heart.” He writes about making the times everyday when we return to the Savior more still, more thoughtful, and more meditative. To put my own words to it, I would say more all consuming. In those times, put away the world and be still in the Lord.
I’m looking forward to the discussion. I want to do this in my own life. Today being Sunday, I will try to be more rigorous in my attempt to put away worldly thoughts and walk with the Lord.
