Retired Bishop



Well, he did it!!! My hubby Joe was released Sunday as bishop after 5 years and 2 months! It has been quite the journey. He endured to the end, but I could sure tell he was getting tired. It was fun seeing him on Sunday. He was giddy, smiling, took a nap, and even made ribs for dinner! He loves to cook and hasn't for quite awhile. They were yummy.

I am so proud of Joe. He served the Lord well. We have gone through a lot over the past 5 years. When he was called, he was working Sundays at KSL radio, so we never really have known Sundays together. That is probably why last Sunday was so weird to me to have him home and not at meetings. Natalie enjoyed it too. We are looking forward to having him sit beside us again. Bishops are so amazing with all that they have to do.

Joe and I were reminiscing about all the special moments we have experienced. We love our ward and the members in it. We are also grateful to the Lord for his protection. We realize all the many times we were protected from the adversary and blessed with so many blessings during this calling.

We now look forward to whatever adventures the Lord has in store. Maybe Joe will get to now be in the nursery??:)
