Josh teaches us tons

We teach a missionary preparation class at 7:30 a.m., and Sunday School for the young single adults in our ward each Sunday. Josh comes to both, is always prompt, has autism, participates and teaches US in EVERY class. We talked about personal and companionship study as a missionary. L. Tom Perry said, "having two sets of eyes examine the doctrine of the kingdom seemed to multiply our understanding." Josh raised his hand and added that his family studies 'Preach My Gospel' for Family Home Evening. What a great family he has.

In Sunday School class a young lady sat with her arms folded. Josh sensed that she was cold, stood up, and placed his jacket over her shoulders. Our lesson purpose was "to help class members understand that as we take the Savior's yoke upon us and do his will, we will find the peace and joy that he has promised." Josh demonstrated this for us by his actions.
We love this young man, and are so blessed (manuia in Samoan).
