Multi-Cultural New Years Celebration

Member Spotlight: Brittney

This beautiful, outgoing, and hilarious young lady is Brittney. Brittney has been a member of our ward for about three years and was recently released from the Relief Society presidency. Currently, she's serving as the Friday Forum coordinator for the institute, which means she is the source from which our $2 lunches flow. This would make her an ideal person to befriend. 

Ten Facts About Brittney:

1. Her birth name was Rebecca Black. She was forced to change it to Brittney after some wacko stole her identity and made a music video.

2. She may or may not (emphasis on "may not") be called to serve in India.

3. She has successfully convinced me, using photographic evidence, that she visited New Zealand in high school.

4. She was baptized by our ward's second counselor, Shane Sanders, when it was still appropriate to call him "Sugar Shane." (Not that we've stopped.)

5. She's learning how to play the piano. She already knows how to play some other instrument too... maybe the cello? (Sorry, B-Russ.)

6. She is slightly afraid of babies.

7. She wants to work for USAID after she graduates from college.

8. She is also known as "Brussels Sprouts."

9. If your book bag, cell phone, or any other possession you leave lying around the institute disappears, your best bet is to blame Brittney, and, if you're a man, ask someone to check the women's bathroom.

10. Despite first impressions, she is actually a reasonably responsible adult. 

Brycen's Baptism

Brycen was baptized on December 15th. I've been in some of his lessons, and I can tell you all that you should totally get to know Brycen when we get back from Christmas break. He's going to be such a huge asset to our ward family and those of us who know him are so excited to have him here!

Triple converts! Nicola couldn't make it, but here are 3/4 of our new converts from this semester!

Nicola's Baptism

Nicola got baptized on December 7th. Less than a week later, she went to the temple. This girl is on FIRE!!
