Since we are going home soon we have really encouraged our students to memorize "The Family Proclamation." Last week Elder Millet was inspired to go to the bank to replenish his supply of $50 bills. What a surprise we had at our lunch class this week - 4 students had memorized it. After hearing all 4 students quote it the other students were halfway there to memorizing. They work well under pressure as the time is short. What mixed emotions we have about that fact. We will miss our experiences here big time.



Jeff Clark went first.


Next was Jamie Clark.


Then Canda Ashworth.


We were impressed that everyone was still listening when Tim Ashworth was finished.

We work with such outstanding young people. It is surprising that we have had more memorizers with our married students - 7 to 3. Elder Millet says this is the best money he has spent while on our mission. I agree. Everyone was excited.

Beth Graham received $50 from Elder Millet for memorizing "The Family Proclamation." We how have 6 who have done so. Good job, Beth.
