Tribute to Institute

I have started to go back to Institute. I quit last semester after graduating. But as time went by I missed it. I missed having that extra spiritual boost in the middle of the week. So when classes started this semester I went. I found this old pic of when I was in the VP on the Council. Its funny to look back and see where everyone is now. Institute has such a great impact on our lifes.

Travis and William

NOW AND THEN

William was President, Gabe and I were VP's, Josh, Travis, and Juan were council members and Jers was our secretary.
Its great, 5 out of the seven are married. 4 in the temple. Josh is now in our bishopric in our ward. Gabe is Scout Master, me YW Pres. William a Stake Clerk. Its amazing how much things have chnaged but for the good. I wouldnt have it any other way.

I am so gratful for Instutite!
