Camp Alamo service

Greetings from Camp Alamo! Sorry there is no picture; I will post one in a bit. Beautiful weather here; and we even had some rain to cool things down yesterday. Had LDS sacrament meeting this morning; had two soldiers attend. It was great and the Spirit was there! We talked about President Eyering's message from the Ensign magazine on tithing. It is a preparatory law that prepares us to one day live the law of consecration. We looked at Genesis 14:18-20, where Abram paid tithes to Melchizedek. We also looked at Acts 4:32-35, where the church that Christ established had all things in common, so that they were all of one heart and there was no poor among them. This reminds us of the scripture in the Pearl of Great Price, that describes the city of Enoch: "And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness, and there was no poor among them" (Moses 7:18).
