Journeyings: April 2012
http://meolson.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 10, 2012. After the tragic attacks on the twin towers on September 11, 2001, there was a sudden increase in attendance in all religious congregations. After a few months, attendance began to drop again. It is as if when we are in physical danger, we turn to God. It makes me proud to know that the citizens of this great nation know where to turn in crisis. So, why do we turn away when immediate crises are over? Some may be saying, "But Michael, you said physical. Whatever the consequence m...

Thursday, December 18, 2008. Santa's Frozen in Carbonite! He's been frozen in carbonite! 160;He should be quite well protected- if he survives the eating process, that is. Ok We had fun with our Christmas Tree this year. I am proud to announce that Eliza and I have caught ourselves a beautiful, 100% pure, genuine plastic tree! 160;Sad. I really wanted a pine. But, when you're gone for 2 weeks straight, we figured that the plastic was easier to take care of. 160;We liked it. Yes, we love our tree.

Friday, January 1, 2010. So, in honor of the new year, we decided to watch 2010. The sequel to 2001: Space Odyssey.

Sunday, February 26, 2012. Lesson 8: "O How Great the Goodness of Our God" (2 Nephi 6-10). Original lesson material found here. Nephi had established an order to his people. His younger brothers, Jacob and Joseph, were set apart as teachers in the church. 2 Nephi 6-10 consist of the teachings of Jacob to the people. Further, there are descriptive references to the Savior in these chapters. For instance: The list may include the following words: deliver ( 2 Nephi 6:17. 2 Nephi 8:3, 12. 2 Nephi 8:4–5.

Journeyings: December 2009
http://meolson.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 26, 2009. On the 11th of this month, Eliza and I took Leslie and Emma, her little brother and sister, to see the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert. I think that's when my Christmas changed this year. There is one line from the first stanza of that hymn saying, "Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light." That was the message that Churchill gave. That was the story of how the music to the hymn was written. That was, for me, the theme of that Christmas Con...Christmas...

Journeyings: October 2009
http://meolson.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 22, 2009. The joys of change.again. So, on April 14, 2009, I made an entry on my new calling. The Sunday before Conference last October, I was called as Sunday School President. Sometime just before conference last April, I was called as Stake Music Chairman. I joked about what I might be called to in this October's conference. Maybe I shouldn't have joked quite so loudly. I love serving in the church! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Book of Mormon Lesson Manual.
