Interfaith Service

Every year the churches out here get together to put on an interfaith service, before the LDS church has never been invited. This year however, we were invited and so our ward volunteered to host the event. Jeff and I went last night and it was really a cool thing to be a part of. Everyone came in their sunday best and each church had their Deacon, Rabbi, Pastor, Bishop, etc. get up and read a scripture or give a sermon. It was all about Thanksgiving and focused on the things we have in common such as our love for our Heavenly Father and all he has blessed us with. When it came our turn our primary got up and sang a medley of Thanksgiving hymns and they were huge hit. It was very much a success and a great opportunity. Afterwards there was refreshments and mingling in the back. I hope our church will have the opportunity to be invited from here on out.

*In other news we are meeting Scott and Becca in New York this weekend then bringing them back to our place! Our first visitors, couldn't be more excited!
