So, let me take you back to April 4.....it was a Sunday....general conference Sunday....also Easter Sunday......at about 11:05.....5 minutes after the first session of conference that day ended, we get a call from Bishop Hamann....he wants to meet with Matthew in between conference sessions.....he goes in and has a worthiness interview to advance to the office of High Priest....Bishop told him that usually this comes with a calling, but of course he does not have the authority to tell him the calling they are thinking about putting him in. Later that night, the stake secretary called to see if he and I could go in and meet with one of the Counselors in the stake presidency on Wed. night. Matthew called his Dad Sunday to see if he would be willing to come ordain him to office of high priest.....with no hesitation, his dad said yes....they would drive out, arriving here Friday afternoon......now, going to that Wed.....Matthew was asked if he would be willing to serve as the 2nd counselor in a new Bishopric that was going to be put in on Sunday....so, now he is serving as the counselor.....life is busy, but we are doing well. I am greatful to have a husband that is worthy and willing to serve wherever needed. He is a great man, and we have a wonderful new bishopric....(not that the previous bishopric wasn't wonderful!).....anyway, with that change, we were blessed to have Matthew's dad and Peggy here for a week.....it was a fun spur of the moment visit for us!!!!
