Branches

Just over a week ago, we had the opportunity to attend a branch that is just south of town.  Our entire family was responsible for speaking.  The kids did wonderful!  I missed the last talks that they gave.  Well, we used them this time too, but I didn't get to go with the rest of them last time.

Anyway, I will fist say, that these people have a fabulous, functional building in which to meet!!!  It is definitely no "Phase I"!!!

One of the first people we saw was Julie's old kindergarten teacher- that was fun!
We had a great time and we even took Great Grandma Phyllis with us when we went.  So, that was nice too.  We did not make her speak though.  ;)

Yesterday, when we got up to get ready for church, the first thing Amelia said to me was, "Are we gonna go back to that little church today?"

I guess she liked it!

But no, we went to our own and it was good too.

There is a special place in my heart for the branches of the church.  I miss them often!  Seriously, I really do think about them quite a bit.

I will never willingly attend a phase one structure on a regular basis again, but I am definitely not opposed to living where the church is "small".  (in numbers)
