Remote Mission Week 21 - July 25, 2021

¡Hola a Todos! (Hello All!)

 

It’s been another busy week in the mission and here in Lehi, UT. We are encouraged to see the Covid numbers trending downward in Peru, and hopefully that will continue. But…we still don’t have any news regarding when Peru’s religious VISA process will open up. So, we continue to serve from afar.

 

This week in Relief Society the lesson focused on Elder Jorge T. Becerra’s recent General Conference talk, “Poor Little Ones.” Elder Becerra currently serves in our mission area presidency and somehow we feel a connection to him, even though we’ve never personally met him. We love his reminder to:

 

“… be faithful; stand in the office which I have appointed unto you; succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees”

“And in doing these things thou wilt do the greatest good unto thy fellow beings, and wilt promote the glory of him who is your Lord” (Doctrine and Covenants 81:5,4).

 

¡Que tengan una semana súper fantástica! (Have a super fantastic week!)

 

Love,

 

Lane & LeAnn

Early summer heat wave seemed to ripen our peaches faster and surprised us.  

Although we were hesitant to pick them so seemingly early, they were delicious!

Just like in life, we need to listen and act when the Spirit prompts us.

Enjoying visiting with nearby family to remember the 24th of July, 

the sacrifices of pioneers and others that have gone before us, and 

the freedoms of this great country.  

Our son Jaron begins his Army military service this week 

to maintain those freedoms.  

So proud of all those that serve missions for the Lord 

as well as missions for our freedom!

We had an opportunity to give a little helping-hand service this week.

We all need help in our lives and appreciate those that help us!

Unfortunately he didn't have any helpful insights!

Life is like that.  Sometimes we just do the best we can in trying to do what is right.
