Happy Birthday To You...Garrett!



Garrett is one of "our kids" and what a fine young man he is! As his birthday treats, he chose fresh pineapple and rice crispie treats. You got it fella'!

He has been a stalwart in our Institute class, having arrived from sea duty a few months after we were assigned to teach in January of 2008. Garrett served a mission and will graduate in June from the US Merchant Marine Academy and will begin a maritime career with the Coast Guard. He has a good understanding of the scriptures and is a real asset in the class discussions. We really get attached to these young people.

Thanks, Garrett, for making our time at the Academy so rich and memorable!

Knowing and teaching young people like Garrett make your missionary efforts all worthwhile.
