Amazing!

Our grandson Lincoln turned 12 last week so we went over to Gilbert to see him being ordained a deacon on Sunday.  What an exceptional experience we had.  Apparently in their ward when the boys turn 12 all the Aaronic priesthood holders come into Primary during senior Primary sharing time..  The Bishop then invited Lincoln to come up and told him that he wanted him to know they were glad that he was joining the boys as a new member of the deacons quorum. All the young men (about 40 ) began to sing "We'll Bring the World His Truth".  I can't even explain how beautiful it was to hear these boys sing to Lincoln.  There were tears shed by many of us as the Spirit was so strong.   I knew that Lincoln would never forget how he felt as he listened to the boys sing.  Afterwards the Bishop said to the Deacons it was time to take Lincoln to his new assignment.  Wow!  What am amazing experience.
