Saturday April 18 2009 is the day that our son, Jerry was ordained as a Deacon.
It was a very special day for our family. We are so grateful to Jerry's uncle and aunt Shane and Chelsea Stevens, Our close friend of the family Joe Hall and Grandma and Grandpa Stevens for taking the time to be there to support our Son. We miss and love all who wanted to be here but were unable to come. I cannot believe that I have a 12 yr old boy, young man, now.. where does the time go? Brother King was there to officiate the ordination.
Ross was so touched because the one who gave him his Priesthood was there to assist in Jerry receiving his. I cannot begin to tell you how full my heart is knowing the lineage that Jerry comes from. He is so blessed to have a father who honors his priesthood and feels it a sacred calling. He learned this from his father. Jerry, you have special grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins who love the Savior and pattern their lives after Him. May you always remember your roots and where you are going. Know that our Father in Heaven is well pleased with you and that He loves you. Always use the priesthood in a reverent manner. Use it to serve Heavenly Fathers children. You are a special son and we are so blessed to have you in our home and in our family. We love you. Always turn to your Father in Heaven and your Earthly Father in times of need and support. May you always remember this day.
