Bishop Akin

While we were visiting my mom and dad, my brother Dave came over - he had just met with the stake president - he let us know that he had been asked to become the Bishop of his ward! 

We are so pleased that he is a worthy, righteous priesthood holder. This is a big calling but we have know doubt that he will magnify it and meet the challenges that it brings! 

He said that one of the things that struck him the most was that magnificent men had been praying about and for him for weeks - including the first presidency. That really is an awesome realization!

It was nice that we were all there and were able to attend church with him on the day he took the Bishop's seat! It was especially nice that Steve and Mark were able to attend with us!
