This announcement, isn’t about you. It’s about the sweet and pure message you are being asked to bear and the ever greater numbers God needs to bear it.
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

Dear friends: May 2, 2013 is a very very important day in the history of the world.

This date marked 20 years that this planet has been graced by the presence of one Derek J. S. What a blessing it is to refer to such an amazing man as my best friend! Without his influence and encouragement, I wouldn’t have decided to serve a mission.


Derek will probably not ever read this. That’s okay. It’s mostly an FYI for the universe to know about his fantastic nature.
