The only "F" word here is for "Faith"

One of my sons told me that blogs are only used by kids that want to write about how they hate themselves and they always use the "F" word. Well, I don't know how true that is, but the only "F" word you're going to see on this blog is "Faith". And also "Fat" if I'm referring to people that don't follow the word of wisdom.

The stake president sends his love

Yesterday at church I forgot to mention that I had a meeting with President Martin on Saturday and he sends his love. Next week I'll be in the foyer hugging most of you and putting a snug arm around the waist of all of you others. That will be the love from President Martin.

I'm not exactly sure how he wants me to send his love. I never got a chance to ask him. He said he sends his love and then he quickly changed the subject to a couple people in the ward we're going to have to ex-communicate. I can't tell you who they are, but I will tell you it was not sexual sin. (You always just assume it was a sexual sin). It was because they stole tithing. Oh, it's so hard for me to keep a secret. I'll give you a hint. One of them just bought one of those new Susuki Grand Vitara's.

There's a new bishop in town

As you know, I was just called to be the bishop the first week of April 2006. So I'll ask for your prayers and your patience as I learn my new job. I'm sure you will all agree with me that our previous bishop, bishop Stenton did a remarkable job and we are all very sorry that he has decided to leave the church and become a polygamist.

Sister Peterson still having headaches

Just wanted to let you all know that Sister Peterson is still having her headaches and we request that you continue to pray for her. Also, if anyone has any asprin she can borrow then that would be appreciated.

Blessings,
Bishop Gerald Higgins
