Hands, originally uploaded by Shirley Buxton.

On Sunday in Chula Vista, CA., the ministry laid hands on my grandson Joel Buxton, and he was sent forth as an ordained minister of the gospel.

Throughout the world--even the church world--there is a strong possibility that the laying on of hands has not been fully appreciated, and, too often, has even been totally misunderstood.

I have to completely agree with this, with out the laying on there is no annointing. I have seen this personally! Is the picture of the girl Carrissa Hale from the Auburn church? If not she has a twin!
Thank you for your comments, Donna. The couple here are my grandchildren, Joel and Aisha Buxton.
Blessings to you.
Such an awesome article, and I love your Joel. He was such a great student in my class in Rialto, more years ago than I want to count. Well, really–I love that God has been faithful all these years, so counting them is better than the alternative.Making me feel a lot older, but so proud for you, and Elder Buxton, and Joel and Aisha. Congratulations!!
