This past Sunday Dave was ordained a High Priest and put in as the new 2nd Counselor in our bishopric. I am so happy to be married to such a worthy and strong man. Isn't he handsome!
He was interviewed last Tuesday night and was told that the change wouldn't take place for a few weeks. We went to Mesa this past weekend and planned on going to church with some friends. Dave called Bishop Sunday morning to let him know that he would not be at meetings and Bishop said that we should probably get home. At the last minute there was a change of plans and they decided to make the change Sunday. This was at 9:30 and our church starts at 1pm. We threw everything in the car and ran out the door. We hit the freeway at exactly 10am and was in Thatcher at 12:15. The fastest trip home I have ever made. Luckily we had our church clothes with us, but Dave didn't have his suit. We stopped at his brother's house, borrowed a suit, changed clothes and raced to the church. We made it with time to spare. Talk about a wild ride!
Dave's dad ordained him as a High Priest and then President Sanders set him apart. Both blessings were beautiful and memorable. He was promised some wonderful blessings and I am so thankful for the opportunity he has to serve.

We too are so very proud of Dave. He has been heading toward this job (and others) for a long time!
Please let us help you in any way that we can!
How neat! Congratulations Dave and Dana!
Awesome! Sounds like he will be keeping busy!
You guys are going to be soooo "church" busy! Taking on these important callings this early in life (because WE are so YOUNG, right?) are going to lead you to SLC by the time you are 50!
