The Mostly Female Army of Helaman (MFAoH)

 


Our granddaughter, Gabbi is a force.  She is a natural leader.  She has organized a group of kids- mostly female- to go to the temple together each Friday morning to do Baptisms and Confirmations.  They call themselves The Mostly Female Army of Helaman (MFAoH)  They have a later start at their school on Fridays, so they are using that time to serve.  Gabbi loves to do family history work, and she finds a lot of names of ancestors to do the work for.  She and Jaron are keeping me busy, too, trying to find names.  I love this precious army!  Michelle says she does it entirely on her own.  She has set up a text group.  She sends out a reminder and asks whose mom can drive.  One Friday, all of the middle and high schools were off school.  It was not the best day to go because the teenagers flooded the temple.  Gabbi and her friends had to wait three hours to do three names each!  But what better place is there to hang out?  

I asked to her to take a picture of the army.  She says the numbers vary each week from 3- 12.  This week there were four who came.
