Elder Tyler Brady: Family FHE

Elder Brady's Motto

"I have desired that while serving a mission that I am to do God's will, not mine. If it is the will of God that I should spend my days proclaiming this Gospel and bearing testimony of these things, I shall think of myself highly privileged and honored. When the spirit of God is upon me, I think it matters very little what I suffer, and what I sacrificed - whether I secure the honor or dishonor of men, or where I die, if it so be that I can keep the faith, fight the good fight, and finish my course with joy, I have all eternity before me in which to enjoy myself."

Family FHE

For all of you Mothers out there...

No, I am not a Mom (as of yet) but I bet one of the hardest times as a mother of a 19-year old boy is sending him out into the world to preach the gospel to those who have not had the wonderful opportunity of having it in their lives. 19 seems too young, but we all know they leave as boys and come back as men.

Having Ty be the only boy in the family we are excited we only have to go through this two-year process once. We know he is going to be an excellent missionary who is going to love his experiences and grow more than just in size. He is going to come back with a greater love for the Lord, our gospel and people in general.

Along with all of the "lasts" you go through with sending a missionary off (last movie, last family vacation, last Sunday...) we had our last FHE. We had a blast. We had friends, family and grandparents come over to eat, play games and just be together. We played the beloved "Kan Jam" which was a hit until Kristin did the unbelieveable and made it in the slot to win the game! Congratulations Kristin.
