Thankful Thursday, for Early Mornings...
Each morning we rise at 5:00 am to start the morning IV and our routine begins. Six weeks ago Sister Albaugh(missionary who lives with us) was called to be the early morning seminary teacher. Her condition was if she could do it in our home. So She has four students that arrive a 6:00 am for Bible Study. Five days a week. Kids in our church that live further go to seminary on Wednesday nights(which means they have home study the other days of the week). This year they are studying the New Testament. Coming from Utah where our school system gave released time during the school schedule for seminary didn't seem such of a sacrifice, although just as important. Two of the students live 20 and 30 minutes away. They arrive each morning Sing a hymn, pray, and study. It's pretty awesome to see how diligent they are. How important God is in their lives and how much it means to them to read the scriptures everyday. It's fun to hear them first thing in the morning. We are thankful for the opportunities that we have while having the missionaries in our home.

Yay for seminary... and students who have a testimony.
WOW! I didn't know you were doing that? Your entire house is dedicated to the service of the church. How lucky for you to have that spirit there. I don't think I've even had another church member in my home besides family members.
This would be such a neat experience! The feeling would be wonderful.
