Spotlight on Austin Larsen.  Austin was born and raised in Mountain Green. He was a cute little helper boy from the day he was born. Austin graduated from Morgan High in 2003. He was excited to serve a mission. He was called to serve in the Mexico Monterrey East Mission where the learned to love the people and made lifelong friends. His testimony grew and he learned what a joy it is to serve those around him and the true meaning of “Labor of Love.”  Six months after returning from his mission he met his smoking hot wife Nicole at a singles ward activity in Jackson Hole. Nine months later they were married and sealed in the Bountiful Temple. This year they will be celebrating their 15-year anniversary. In the first few years of marriage, they moved a few times, remodeling two homes. Two years ago, they bought Austin’s third-generation childhood home here in Mountain Green. Austin is a Lieutenant Paramedic and works for Weber Fire District. In his career he is able to continue to serve people in their times of need, often on their worst day. He is very passionate and loves what he does. Some of his best memories from his job are, delivering a baby and pulling an unconscious woman from her burning home. Austin and Nicole have two children, Brooks (8) and Beth (5). Austin is a passionate Waterfowl hunter and will big game hunt when it is not duck hunting season. Austin is a great husband and father. He works hard to provide for his family and always is looking to achieve his goals. Austin is fiercely loyal and has a very small circle, and at times he is seen as the strong and silent type. He loves unconditionally and really is a big soft teddy bear.

In Case You Missed It.  Alan Turner led a discussion last Sunday on Elder Neil L. Anderson’s conference address entitled,  “Drawing Closer to the Lord.”  Alan said the most important part of his lesson was, “that even though things are getting difficult, know that things will work out and as you stay prepared you have no reason to fear.” He also suggested two scriptures: D&C 38:30 and D&C 45:35.
