"You will be an official representative of the Church . . . Your purpose will be to invite others to come unto Christ . . . Greater blessings and more happiness than you have yet experienced await you as you humbly and prayerfully serve the Lord in this labor of love among His children." . . . Thomas S. Monson

SKYPE!

What an amazing Mother's Day I had today! We were able to Skype with Elder Landon Dean Layton at 8:00 am for 46 minutes and 36 seconds. (But who's counting!) It was so much fun and so surreal to see his face pop up on our TV! We were also able to group chat with the Strong Family in Washington AND it all worked without a single glitch! He looked so great and was so happy...it just made my day! He brought in 2 African Elders and they spoke French so we could hear him speak. It was amazing to us to listen to him speak a foreign language!
One thing that stood out to me was when he pulled a hankie out and was wiping sweat from his forehead, face and neck. It's very hot there...always. Bless his heart! He is doing such a great job and has such a great attitude!
 We were even lucky to 'meet' the famous SOUTHAMS!!! Sister Southam gave Landon a hug from me :) They are such special people for sure! I love them.
We were all riveted to the TV and listened and loved everything he had to say!
