Today is the beginning of a new week and I don't know where the last one went. It has been incredibly busy here, for me and all of the staff and missionaries. Tuesday the Church successfully launched the much awaited Family Tree to accompany FamilySearch. Considering it launched worldwide in the ten core languages there were no major glitches. I know there were issues and it is something new to learn but I know the Lord is pleased with the efforts of the engineers and other technicians who labored long and hard over it.
I thought the picture I choose depicted this world wide launch.
This past week I attended a Fireside presented by Daniel Rona. It was wonderful. He is a Jew born in Israel, immigrated to the United States with his father as a child. He and his father were converted to the LDS Church and moved to Salt Lake City. As a married man he and wife and three children moved back to Israel. So his story is very interesting as a Jew, Latter-day Saint, Israelite and an American. Wish I had time to tell you more.
I attended a Spring Chorale Concert at the Tabernacle on Saturday evening. It was amazing. Especially the piece called simply "Lullaby."
I gave the inspirational thought in our prayer meeting on Thursday. I talked about "For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." Proverbs 23:7 Wish I had time to tell you more. Maybe next week.
I am being trained for more responsibilities at my work and have many meetings to attend. Life is grand and wonderful. I am so thankful for a healthy mind and body to be able to be a part of this important work at my age. I love the people I labor with and we have a lot of fun, too.
I am not writing very much today as I am pressed for time. Just know that I love you all and the Lords work is rolling forth and nothing will stop it.
I pray for all of you and ask the Lord's blessings on you. I will be going to the temple on Thursday if anyone has names for the prayer roll. The Lord loves you and he loves me, Of that I am certain! Sister Winkie
