Post Postscript

Dear Robert,

I want to thank you, and all those who are responsible, for bringing that wonderful, inspiring musical presentation to Lacey last night.  It was one of the most reverent, worshipful programs I have seen, and its testimony of the Book of Mormon was especially powerful.  Every aspect was beautiful; the musical numbers, the narration -- we could clearly hear every word, and every word was important.  The manner in which the youth conducted themselves spoke of their goodness, both during the program, and in the homes of the host families, including mine.  

More than just praise these wonderful young folks, I want to thank them for the effect they had on our Lacey youth, as exemplified by the attached Facebook post, from one of our 16-year-old Laurels.  If this young woman expressed it, I am confident that many more felt the very same way. One of our high councilors expressed the desire to follow them down to Oregon, just to hear it all again. We didn't have as good a crowd as we could have wished, but every soul was touched, not least my own. I love the Book of Mormon with all my heart, and I've never seen it treated better. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Please consider us again, if you are ever in our area.
