Another month has come and gone here in the North household. I hope it’s the same in your households, because if not then we’ve messed up somewhere. We’ve finally submitted to the rhythmic humdrum of our work and school routine. I go in with Becky at 8 every morning and do some homework before my classes start. I’m usually done before she is and have some time in the afternoon to do some homework. On Monday nights we attend our ward FHE. Do you remember when FHE was a ward activity? Jason you were only in that situation for a few months weren’t you. Derik, you moved on pretty quickly too. Rob and I stayed for awhile, and now I can’t seem to get out. Our ward has a fantastic FHE leader, and we enjoy socializing with the ward members, but we also miss doing our own FHE. Wednesday nights we have an institute class together. We’re taking the class called “Achieving a Celestial Marriage.” It’s for newlyweds. So far I’ve been impressed with the teacher. I think we’re going to get a lot out of the class.
I have a class on Contemporary European Cultures. The teacher is a lot of fun, and he relates to his students very well…he’s also off his rocker. He spent the last class period trying to convince us that beauty, love, truth, and evil are non-existent. “What,” you ask “does that have to do with contemporary European culture?” I answer: “I’m not really sure, but it’s fun to debate it.” All my other classes are going well. I am enjoying my class on neurology. We are learning some fascinating things about how the brain develops and functions. I have felt the Spirit on a number of occasions testifying to me during class that there is no way our bodies evolved by chance, but we are created in the image of God. The brain is a marvel.
So are you all going to be able to see a broadcast of the temple dedication? They are transmitting it to a few stake centers here in Pocatello, so we’ll be able to go and watch. I think it will be a wonderful experience.
Well I’m out of time folks. We hope everything is going well for you. If you’re ever in Pocatello give us a call and stop by for dinner.
-Stewart and Becky

I will be interested in seeing if you come out of the class a dualist, materialist, functionalist, or something else that I am not aware of. It is always nice to have an informed opinion.
