Prayer
11/14/11- As you know, Mormonism is all over the news. San Antonio is one of the test markets for the, “I am a Mormon” campaign. Please pray for more speaking engagements so that we can inform people about the differences between Mormonism and Christianity.
11/7/11- Typically things slow down in November, but that is not the case this year. Mormonism has been in the media because of the two Mormon Presidential candidates and that keeps us very busy.
We also have a number of exciting projects and opportunities coming up in the near future. Please PRAY that we prioritize and keep up with everything during this busy time of the year. Thanks for praying and may God bless you for His glory!
Boycott McDonald’s
The American Family Foundation has called for a boycott of McDonald’s because of its support of the rabid, anti-family, gay agenda. Micky D’s was asked to be neutral in the culture wars, but instead released a statement reiterating their stance against traditional family values. If you would like more information about the boycott, visit the web site set up specifically for this boycott. I have left a comment and have notified McDonal’s that our family will no longer be patrons of their restaurant. I encourage you to do the...

Happy fourth of July to every one! We decided to celebrate by going to the circus. My folks and I took the kids while Becky stayed home to stay off of her feet. Baby Walker is due any day now so Becky needed to take it easy. While at the circus, I took a few pictures and a good amount of video. The circus was good, but all of us agreed that last year’s circus was better.The circus may not seem like a “patriotic” activity, but I like the idea of it. I enjoy the freedom of the acrobats on the trapeze and high wires. They...

I’m having a hard time keeping up with my journaling. Since I am in the park and Becky is not, she is able to get more done journaling-wise. She is all caught up so I will post her thoughts and then will do mine once I can get to them. I will also post pictures after I get them taken off of my camera. From Becky’s 2008 Manti Journal.Friday, June 13We had another regular morning with being at the church from 9:30-noon. Our speakers were Junelle Jacobson (the lady I’m staying with) and Mitz Nelson. They are both ex-LDS from the...
read more2008 Manti Mission Trip Report Part 1
As is our custom, Becky and I keep journals while we are on our mission trips. While we are here in Utah, I will try to post our journals and keep you updated as well as I can. The little city of Manti has Wi-fi access so I can actually journal in my tent. How cool is that? Becky is much better at actually finding time to write, so most of this will be from her. I am doing the best I can in keeping up with the demands of leading our team so I am going to journal a little differently than I have in the past. Rather than write out the whole...

A post from Becky- Thursday night was the first dress rehearsal for our daughter’s first real ballet recital. It was a situation where moms were not allowed backstage, the staff of the SA Parks and Recreation along with the dance teachers stayed with the kids. I told our daughter before we left that she would be backstage for a long time just waiting with the girls from her class, so she could pack a little backpack of things to do, maybe crayons and coloring books to share. Totally on her own, she chose a Bible out of our kids Bible...

As is our tradition, we design a new t-shirt every year for our mission team. Last year’s shirt was a big hit that helped draw people into conversations. Numerous people approached me and asked what the shirt meant. We are hoping for similar responses this year with our new design. The stop sign is similar to the shirt we had for 2004, but our message this year is different. “Stop Repenting” is a phrase that most Mormons would find contradictory to their beliefs. They are told that they must repent or they will not be...
