Dear Wild Bunch of Crazy People (All
related to the Crazy Lady!),
Yesterday was the celebration of 30 years since the dedication of the country
of Hungary by President Russell M Nelson to open the country for missionary
work. That was in 1987. Aunt Marnee was 10 years old, just older
than Kate, Garrett and Evan and as bossy as Kate! Uncle Scott was 8 years
old, being in the spring he was already playing baseball. Uncle Steven
was just getting ready for his 7th birthday and also playing
baseball. Aunt Anne had just had her 4th birthday and already
taking cooking lessons from Grandma Moser!
Hepa’s 30 year Predictions: 30 years from
now TJ will just be learning how to walk. Camden will have taught the
whole world his and Hepa’s new language that they use. Zack will be the
enforcer for world peace. Hannah will be a comedian on TV, Avery will be a
singing star. Kaitlyn will be living in Arizona and people will come from
all over the world just to see her smile! Garrett will also do a lot of
singing, but will teach people how to be nice to all people. Kate, she
will still be doing flips, jumping on brick walls and the first woman
quarterback in the NFL. Evan will have built his first bridge across the
Grand Canyon with a downward slope so you can glide across the bridge on bikes
without peddling (don’t ask how you come back the other direction). Ryan
will still be loved by all of his cousins and will be an expert in conflict
resolution. Riley will be on stage playing multiple musical instruments at the
same time, while blowing bubbles through her nose, a very multi-talented young
woman! And Parker, what will Parker being doing as a 43-year-old father?
Parker will be telling his kids to get off the electronic games and start
helping around the house, and saying: “When I was your age, I never played
games until after I had read the Book of Mormon, made my bed, cleaned up my
room, put the clean dishes up, scrub the toilets and took out the trash!”
I can’t wait to
see if Hepa’s predictions are real!
In 30 years from now, Nema and Hepa will still be trying to learn the Hungarian
language! But above all, in 30 years from now we will be very very proud
that all of our grandchildren will have gone on missions, married in the temple
and have families all active in the church. Nema will still be the Crazy
Lady, but in 30 years from now, she will really be “THE CRAZY LADY!”
Hepa, using a new miracle cream will have a full head of hair, and Kate will
now come over every day and beg to braid his hair! Avery and Hannah will
only want it to be curled, Kaitlyn will want him to dye it red and Riley will
just laugh and say, “I liked you bald!”
All of this is what we can think may happen in the future. It is fun and
exciting to do this. Planning for the future is what we need to do at all
times. Reading the Book of Mormon, going to church, paying tithing,
putting money in your missionary fund is all done as you prepare to go on
missions and getting ready to go to college. It prepares you to get ready
to get married in the temple and to have a family. Your parents are where
they are today because they planned and worked hard to meet goals and
desires. They are great examples for all of you to follow.
There are certain facts that we don’t have to guess about the future:
I.
The
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will still be getting bigger and
bigger. It will become the source of very many good things that the world
needs.
II.
There
will be many more temples all over the world for all members of the church to
be able to go to. There will even be a temple in Hungary.
III.
The
prophet will still be guiding the church the way that Jesus Christ has asked
him to do (that is of course unless Jesus Christ has come to earth again).
IV.
We
will be an eternal family! That means that you all will have to listen to
Hepa tell the same bad jokes over and over and over again, and you will have to
pretend to laugh at his jokes each time he tells them!
Other than listening to Hepa’s jokes isn’t that exciting? Isn’t it
wonderful that we know the future? Isn’t it great that we know if we pray
daily, read the scriptures daily, go to church and do what the Lord wants us to
do that the future is Disney World times infinity (For Uncle Steve, maybe a ski
slope that takes 12 hours to ski down one run!).
We want all of you to know that Nema and Hepa know that God lives. We
know that Jesus Christ is guiding the church. We know that what we are
doing in Hungary, what your parents are doing in Texas and Arizona is preparing
for Jesus Christ to come to earth again. We see and feel daily the
prompting from the Holy Ghost to do and say things that will affect peoples’
lives. We do this so that we can do what we promised Jesus Christ we
would do, before coming to earth. Do you think it was by accident that
you were born to your parents? You got the parents you have because you
were very righteous before you came to earth. You got this family because
you told Jesus Christ you would be his warrior - a son or daughter of Helaman,
here on earth to preach and live the gospel so that many others will can to
learn about Jesus Christ. That is our testimony this week.
We love you, we miss being with you, but love getting your emails and talking
to you on the phone, even though Garrett has flames coming out of his mouth
when he talks to us on the phone!
