The Temple and Exchanges

 Elder Wastlund and Elder Correa are still going strong as Zone leaders. They have been doing many exchanges recently, and their district also got to attend the temple. They have a zone conference coming up and exchanges with the AP’s. These two have such a great time together. I can’t believe Kody is over halfway through with his mission. He told us today his return date is already set for Dec 5th! He is eating rabbit in the picture at the bottom.

Welcome Home Elder Wastlund

 21 hours travel time, but that hug was worth it! I imagine heaven will be the same. Years will become an instant, and then suddenly love and remembrance will fill our hearts and we will feel as though we were never apart. I am so thankful for eternal families! And for this missionary who served with his whole heart. We love you Elder Wastlund, well done!

Release

 Kody was released as a missionary by President Barney just a few hours after arriving home.  Kody said as President Barney released him he could feel the Lord's acceptance of his work and a feeling of love and appreciation. He was given the neatest blessing and told that he could not progress now without an eternal companion by his side.  The next morning he reported his mission to the high council, and I was so proud of him and amazed at how much he had grown in two years.  He spoke with humility and power. We whisked him away to Disneyland on a family trip the next week.  The following Sunday he reported his mission in church, and did an amazing job. I cried mot of the way through.  Our family then sang "If I Were a Shepherd" a Christmas song about being a disciple of Christ. I was so grateful to have all of my family by my side again.  I am excited to see what is in store next for this new man who has been refined by the Lord.
