On Sunday July 11th Mike was sustained as the 2nd counselor in the Bishopric. There were many wonderful and spiritual things that happened leading up to this call, and we feel honored for him to have the chance to serve in this capacity.
Anyone who knows Mike, knows what a dedicated hard working man he is. He also has a great capacity to care about and love others and I know that this is where the Lord wants him to be.
Our new Bishop, Farrel Martin, and the first counselor, Brother Ron Franklin, are exceptional men and Mike is looking forward to working with them.
As this Sunday rolled around, he found out that he would be conducting. He did a good job, though I could tell that he was nervous. At least his suit coat and pants matched :)
I am fortunate to be married to such a wonderful man who honors his priesthood and sets such a great example for me and for our children. I know that he will settle into this new calling just like he has with many others he has held and that our whole family will be blessed by his service.
