Serving Together


Last Friday, the girls had a scrimmage tournament to help them get ready for nationals next month. The rest of us went to help with the different officiating things that need to be done to make a Goalball game happen. I loved watching my three guys working together at the table, timing, score keeping and watching for ten second penalties.

But on Saturday I saw something even more wonderful. We went to the temple as a family to do baptisms. Not long after we got to the font area they asked if there was a priest who would be willing to act as a witness. Nathan said he would and took his place. Then, just a few minutes later they needed another witness and Brian took the chair next to Nathan. I loved watching these two men in white, serving as priesthood holders in the temple (and I loved knowing that Mike will be there soon too). It was also amazing to watch Nathan baptize his siblings, then see Brian baptize him. It is a blessing to be able to serve in the temple.
