A special Weekend

A special weekend. Easter. Living in a State that has 25% of the population that is Catholic has some pluses.   New Mexico is the most culturally Catholic state, at least historically. One of the things I have noticed about our Catholic friends is that they pay special attention to Good Friday as well as Easter. It is a blessing to be around people who love the Lord.

As I thought about this subject I noticed the setting shown by my camera shot. Couple of good young men both with good young women in their lives. A very special lady presented by name on the sign and the focus of this weekend.





Our Church indeed holds sacred all the events of this week that took place in our Saviours life. Good Friday is not a day we have special services but it is an important day. The church is indeed central in our lives. As I look back at 66+ years I recall the first 20+ of those years where our church was lead by David O. McKay. Two quotes that came from him have been special ones for me.

• The purpose of the gospel is to make bad men good and good men better, and to change human nature.”
• The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.
