5 Week Countdown

So Skyler has 5 weeks left until he reports to the MTC. Crunch time has officially started. He took a trip to Utah last week and picked up his mission suits, he's got his luggage, he's got white shirts and ties. Basically he's ready to go. The realization has finally hit him and he's starting to get nervous but we know that the Lord will provide all things and he knows that if he has faith, he'll be just fine.
He enjoys going to the temple, so if anyone wants to go before he leaves, just let us know and he'd love to do a session with you.

"And whoso receiveth you, there I will be also, for I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up." Doctrine and Covenants 84:88, Skyler's new favorite scripture. He is so excited to be able to serve a mission for the Lord and to share his gospel. We know he'll do great and have a wonderful time.

First Temple Trip


Skyler went through the temple for the first time on Thursday! He was so excited and had an amazing time! He was surrounded by his family and people he loves and can't wait to go back! He's going to Utah on Tuesday and is already planning to do 2 sessions while he's there!


Thank you to Bishop and Sister McCombs, Gordon and Debora Christensen and Brother and Sister Cooper for going through the temple with Skyler.
