Church Stuff and Events

These are pictures of several church events that have taken place in the last two months or so that Cody participated in as part of his duties of being the Ward Mission Leader.  The first four pictures are from a returning home missionary fireside on July 29, 2012.  One of our former missionaries, and one of our favorites while Cody was Ward Mission Leader was Kellie Peavler and this fireside was partly for her as she was returning home.  The last eight pictures are from the baptism of 9 year-old Rhonda "Lulu" Kirbo on August 25, 2012.  This was the last baptism Cody conducted as Ward Mission Leader before being released to become the 2nd Counselor in the Elders Quorum Presidency.
