Some of the brethren are probably celebrating this a little too much. Hopefully those Elders that had children that were out of school this summer were able to spend time with them and have some great memories together. Remember that this is a great opportunity to give your children a Father's blessing.
This week's lesson is from the Joseph Smith manual, Chapter 14, Words of Hope and Consolation at the Time of Death. This week, we will have a full lesson, without a counsel, but we would like to think about these questions as you ponder and read this lesson before Sunday:
1. How do I prepare for death (either your own or someone you love?)
2. Why do we (as Latter-Day Saints) look at death as a good thing and not bad like the world feels.

Remember next Saturday, the 16th, we have a Back to School Bash at the Munn's house. We'll be playing Volleyball, swimming, eating hot dogs and snacks and much more. This will be a potluck activity, so please bring a snack, dessert, or dish.
Also, this Saturday, we'll be starting our Saturday Morning Sports. We have 2 events, one at Harmony, which is a 5k run and another at the chapel, which will be basketball. Both start at 8am.
Last week, our lesson was on service and we had many service ideas brought up. We will be reporting on Sunday our assignments that we were given. Please try to contact those organizations before then, if possible, so we can get out and serve our community!
The month is very new, but let's try to get our home teaching as soon as possible. Remember it's Hurricane Season, let's make sure our home teaching families are prepared!
Thanks for everything that you do!
We love you,
Jon
