Lamb of God


Recently Lamb of God: The Concert Film came out in theaters. Scott and I saw it on opening night and loved it. He took his mom to see it about a week later and I took our girls to see it on spring break. It was just as amazing the second time. I think it will be a favorite for a long time.  Here's an article that tells how it was made.

One of the main parts is the cello which portrays the voice of Christ. The cellist is a woman I knew from my music days at BYU, Nicole Pinnell. She has had her struggles in her adult life. She got married during her time at BYU and then a few years later, she and her husband left the LDS church. She was away from the church for about 20 years during which time she got divorced. A few years ago, she came back to the church. Last week I listened to the blog, "This is the Gospel," in which Nicole tells about an experience she had while recording the movie in conjunction with another experience she had at the same time in trying to forgive someone who had hurt her deeply. It's definitely a good listen and I recommend it.

Bruce and Michelle organized the activities and did a good job. I enjoyed myself! Hopefully lots of other people did too. We showed up on Wednesday afternoon and enjoyed a taco salad dinner, served by Neil and Kristie's family. We also worked on two mixer games:  a word search with the names of all 100 Hansen family members as well as a Bingo card that involved finding people with different attributes like recent high school graduation, birthdays in certain months, etc. The word search was definitely the most popular. Also popular was playing Nine-Square and Sandy Pickle (a cross between pickle ball and badminton). Thys and Katrina might have won! After dinner, we had an FHE activity/lesson. Liz had made a book with stories of the first ancestors to join the church. She had selected different stories for us to act out in g...
