What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

Vocal Point: I Stand All Amazed

This short film, musical video shows the life of the Savior from his birth through his resurrection.  It uses many scenes from the Bible Videos.  Oh it is wonderful.  The Savior is my God.  He has made life worth living, for I have been racked by sins and wrong deeds.  Only through the Savior am I made whole.  As Mr. Krueger said, through Him I can hold my head high.  May we remember the true meaning of Christmas.

Blessed Are They That Have Not Seen, and Yet Have Believed - Thomas of t...



This stunning portrayal of the interaction between Thomas and Jesus left me in tears.  It is very well done.  May we all be believing.  Here we have more witnesses of the resurrection.

Jesus Christ Appears on the Road to Emmaus



Did not our hearts within us born, as he opened to us the scriptures.  Two witnesses of Christ's resurrection.

My Kingdom is Not of This World


This is the second part of the story of "To this End Was I Born."  In this video we see the Crucifixion of Jesus, as well as his resurrection.  It provides testimony of some who saw Him.

To This End Was I Born



This is a summary of the life of jesus, ending with his condemnation.  May we always stand as witnesses of him, by are partaking of the sacrament weekly.  Very well done.  This story concludes in "My Kingdom Is Not of This World."

The Redeemer: A Service of Sacred Music (Easter Concert) - Mormon Tabern...


I hate to admit it, but this is going to sleep music.  Only the song about the Crucifixion had enough energy to keep me awake.  Also I couldn't understand many of the words of the soloists, especially the sopranos.  I wasn't watching close enough to get the titles every time, as the titles gave a hint as to what they were saying.

He is Risen: John the Beloved's Witness of the Resurrection



This is the story of Jesus, as seen through the eyes of John the Beloved.  John was with Jesus during his ministry, upon the Mount of Transfiguration, at the Garden of Gethsemane, at the cross, where Jesus instructed him to care for his mother, and saw Him, the risen Lord, and bore testimony of Him.  "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing."

Easter Sunday 2015

In addition to conference weekend, we had Jeremy Kayla and the boys, and Anthony Charity and Camberly over for Easter dinner.  We had plan an Easter egg hunt, but then ran out of time.  However we did dye eggs, and went to the park.  Anthony took the eggs he had filled with candy, and some from the neighbors and did a hunt the day after Easter.

Easter Weekend 2014

For Easter we had the Normans, Dianna, Mark Heather and Anna (Natalie is at school and spending the Easter Sunday with friends who use to live in Tracy).  The Halls, Charity Anthony and Camberly Rose were also here.  Camberly was happy most of the time.  She doesn't like getting her bum changed though.  We had fun.  I got pictures of the Halls and Miranda; but Tony was being camera shy.  I wanted to show off his Easter clothes, but he was too fast for me.  Miranda bought herself  new Easter dress, and Sheri made Camberly's dress.

We sat and talked, and I showed Dianna pictures on Family Search I have done.  I put some new pictures on this last week, and actually identified a new person, my mom's aunt as identified by her.  I put them on blog and then have Sara show mom the blog and get identifications that way.  Mom is pretty fuzzy about recent things but her long term memory is still very good.  I had also identified a picture as Buffy that mom said was Dianna.

I sang solo with choir yesterday.  Jesus once of humble birth.  Mom said it didn't sound like me because there was too much vibratto.  I don't like to sing with too much vibratto but know that I do sometimes.  I wanted to record one of my songs for Easter, but still haven't done it.  We also sang Come follow me as a choir.  It was a hard arrangement.   

A nice Easter but Tony didn't want to go to church because he said it is a holiday.  We went to two sacrament meetings.  Simon did a very good job.  His family was there; Levi and his mom and dad.  I met his brother but his mom was busy getting information about how to stay in contact with Simon.  I invited them over.  I hope Simon can make it.  He is out of town for the next week.

New boss at work, at least our boss has resigned and her boss is now our boss.
