Casey and I were able to attend church with mom, dad and Alyssa on Sunday. We, along with many other family members, friends from work and our local church family participated in a fast that was consecrated in part to mom, her upcoming course of treatment and our family in general. It was a beautiful time to reflect on the blessings we have and the blessing it is, specifically, to participate in such sacred events. Mom bore her beautiful testimony to the congregation - she is such a strong women and has a deep love for her Savior and for the scriptures, it was a blessing to hear her. Our old Bishop, Kerry Wright bore his testimony, dedicated to mom on how grateful he was to be a part of this fast, his testimony was also very touching and left us all with wet eyes. He is such an amazing man. All in all, it was a great meeting...however, Imust admit that when prayers were offered, that it was odd to hear "Rebecca Colley" singled out for blessings. It was just one of those things that was weird to hear - you always expect to hear someone else's name...not your own mothers.
