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.

Post-op Update

Cory has been recovering well.  These are pictures from his post-op visit 5 days following surgery.  You can see the two screws in the x-ray.


This picure was taken 6 weeks following surgery.  Cory has been wearing a boot to get around but he will go back to the doctor on Sept 1st.  They will take another x-ray and if all looks as it should he will come out of the boot and start wearing regular shoes again.  This will be the real test of his healing and mobility.  The Missionary Department wants him to be able to walk about 5 miles before he can go back out into the mission field.  We are hoping we can work something out where he can go back sooner and just work in the mission office if need be.
