GAME ON!


Hello Elders,

Tomorrow night at 7:00 we hope to dethrone Scott Sager as the reigning champion at our bowling activity. This year's winner will take home the new trophy, which you can tell from the pictures above is the object of much desire. For all those who are unsure how to get to the lanes here are a few directions:



The address is: 4140 W Vine St, Kissimmee, FL 34741, (407)846-8844 and the best way to get there is to stay on Hwy 192 through Kissimme until you pass Hoagland and then make a left at the sign.
The EQ will be picking up the tab for one game and we'll have some deserts to eat. If you want to play, shoes will cost $4.00 and any additional games are $4.75. You can bring your wife or a friend if you would like to. The high score is the champion!

On Sunday, we will be pleased to hear from Joey Snider as he teaches from the a talk given by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf during the priesthood session of conference titled, "A Matter of a Few Degrees." This was a great talk and we are really excited to council on it. Here is the link: http://lds.org/conference/talk/display/0,5232,23-1-851-21,00.html

Our question to you comes directly from the talk: What can we do to keep pornography, violence, ungodliness, intolerance and any other R rated material out of our homes and lives? Please find the time to study the talk, prayerfully consider this question and be prepared to council on it during our meeting.

The spiritual thought for this week comes from the lesson: "The difference between happiness and misery . . . often comes down to an error of only a few degrees." President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Thank you all for everything you do to keep our quorum great. We look forward to seeing you on tomorrow night at the lanes and on Sunday!

Championship Bowling on May 30th!

Hello Elders,

Next Friday will be our annual bowling championship held at the AMF Bowling Lanes in Kissimmee. The address is 4140 W. Vine St. Kissimmee, FL 34741. It will be a blast, with the winner taking home a serious trophy. There will be more details on Sunday, but we hope to see all of you there.

Sunday's lesson will be taught by Jon and will be based on a talk by President Henry B. Eyring titled, "Oh Remember, Remember." Here's the link and please find time to read it before our meeting:

http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=2354fccf2b7db010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD&locale=0&sourceId=88562bce258f5110VgnVCM100000176f620a____&hideNav=1

The question we'll council on is: How do you recognize the hand of God in your life and what do you do to remember those instances in the future?
Please take a minute to think about the question and how it applies to you.

Our spiritual thought for this week comes from the lesson: "
My point is to urge you to find ways to recognize and remember God’s kindness. It will build our testimonies. You may not keep a journal. You may not share whatever record you keep with those you love and serve. But you and they will be blessed as you remember what the Lord has done. You remember that song we sometimes sing: “Count your many blessings; name them one by one, And it will surprise you what the Lord has done." - President Henry B. Eyring

We love you all and look forward to seeing you on Sunday.
