The Warriors....

You know the old saying Sometimes it takes a Village to raise a Child...I truly believe that some kids really do take a village! Jordon is one of those kids! Luckily for us we have had many wonderful Warriors in our village over the past six years! We are grateful for all the love, time and effort that has been bestowed upon Jordon! All of the wonderful Priesthood leaders that Jordon's had, have been amazing examples to him. They have helped shape Jordon into the Young Man he has become! Thank You!!

Uncle Ray...who drove three hours one way for Jordon's ordination! Uncle Ray has always held a special place in Jordon's heart since the day Jordon stopped running around long enough to throw his arms around his neck and give him a big kiss on the cheek. Ray always called him Wild Man!
The ever present sports enthusiast, Rob has provided many of Jordon's first adventures....wakeboarding, snowboarding, paintballing, tubing(and crashing) and motorcycle riding. I think Rob has been in YM since the beginning!


Bishop Muir....all the Youth LOVE him!
Nate served for many years in the YM program. Nate recently took Jordon on his first police ride along! Jordon has been talking about it for days! Nate will always be there for any Scared Straight program you might need!
Scott too has served for many years with the youth. He has always been that extra-eye for us! Scott is the Game Guy....video games, board games, paintball and beach volleyball....you name it...he does it! The boys always loved their trips to EA Games!

Jeff was Jordon's first youth Bishop! Another great guy that Jordon always knew he could count on! We were lucky to have many other wonderful men come to the ordination that are not pictured! Craig Johnson, Larry Wood, David Huffaker, Steve Gingrich...thanks to all these amazing men for their examples! Just a quick mention of a few others who could not be there but have influenced Jordon's life for the better... Bishop Parrish, Steve Spiker, Mark Voges, Kenney Nelson and Brad Ward....you were missed!
