Sacrament Meeting Talk
On Sunday we went to Peter's ward to hear him give his missionary "farewell" talk. Mom, Dad, BJ, Karly, Arron, Me (Marcy), Courtney, Megan and Brooklynn were able to be there along with many friends. He got to speak with his best friend and roomy Jake.
Peter gave a great talk. He looked like a missionary in his shirt, tie and sweater (a missionary serving in a warm area that is!). He spoke well and didn't even seem nervous. He talked about how missionaries are called to places through inspiration from Heavenly Father and that they are called to those places with purpose. He shared the story from conference about the brother who sat with President Iring and helped to call missionaries to their specific missions. He shared Dad's experience about knowing that he would be called to Australia just like his cousin and after getting his call wondering where in Australia Pennsylvania was. But then upon arriving and serving in the state of PA knowing that is where he was suppose to be. He bore his testimony about knowing the gospel is true and how he knows that he is suppose to serve in Tuscon, AZ and how he is excited to do so.
