My Testimony

My Testimony:
I know that the Atonement is real and that we can all enjoy the cleansing power that it provides. I am grateful for my Savior for performing the Atonement so that I can return to my Father in Heaven. I am grateful for missionary service. I am thankful that missionaries world-wide have the opportunity to bring the fullest blessings of the Atonement to faithful children of God. I know that the Bible and The Book of Mormon are inspired scriptures and are here for our behalf. I owe everything to all of those prophets of old that loved us so much and desired so much for our salvation to write down the words on how we can be saved. We are literally children of a loving Heavenly Father and He wants us to return to Him. I know that Jesus is the Christ. And I love the joy the gospel brings with the knowledge that we can be together with our families for all eternity.

Medical Release

Cory arrived home Monday morning (July 12th) for his pre-op visit with Dr. Ollerton, the Podiatrist performing his surgery today.  After the first day he was so bored after being so busy all of the time.  He opted to not take us up on any of the options for church books/DVDs.



So far he has done well today following surgery which ended up being more involved.  Things are good now but because of his joint characteristics he may have issues later in life (don't we all?).  He will go back to see Dr. Ollerton on July 20th.  As of now the doctor said he should be 80% healed in 6 weeks.  Cory is in a walking boot so at least he is a little more mobile than we originally thought he might be.
