Morrison and David were each baptized today, and we were so glad to have the opportunity to celebrate such a big day with them! It's a great opportunity to feel the Spirit, remember our own baptisms, and recommit to living our covenants more completely.

There's nothing quite like gathering with your sisters in Christ around a campfire for good conversation and enjoying God's creations.
"All things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator." -- Alma 30:44

After Institute this week, ward members ward members stayed behind to create cards for the Together Across Generations (TAG) project. With markers, scissors, and varying levels of artistic confidence, we put together encouraging notes for individuals in nursing homes and recovery programs.
Thank you to Erica and Sister Ivory for organizing the project and giving us an opportunity to brighten someone's day with our doodles!

Summer Institute is underway! This semester's classes are focused on the New Testament and Eternal Families. Brother Hutchins filled in for Sister Robinson this week, and Brother Miller led a great discussion on what it means to become more like God. As always, there were thoughtful insights, good questions, and at least a few comments that kept everyone thinking even after class ended.

Horsetooth 1st, Horsetooth 2nd, and the Rocky Mountain Single Adult Wards came together for an afternoon of yard games and picnicking. The weather cooperated, the food disappeared, and who knew we had so many 9 Square in the Air pros in our wards?
It was a great way to spend Memorial Day!

"God has a way of reeling His children back in." -George Knaus
George was baptized on May 24th, and we are so excited to have him in our ward! At his baptism, Bishop Robinson said,
"It isn't every day you get to do something that will matter years and even centuries from now."
We are grateful for George's example of faith and following Jesus Christ. His baptism was a great opportunity for all of us to reflect on our own covenants and commit to keep moving forward in our discipleship.
