About 3 years ago he served for two years in the Eastvale Ward, then our Stake Boundaries were changed, and we had to leave Eastvale. We have both had Stake callings since returning to the Corona Stake. Russell as High Councilman serving with the single's ward that our kids attend, me in the Stake Primary. So now a new adventure. One that we are somewhat familiar with, but also know it will be a different experience with our ward. Russell is excited, and will serve with all his heart, might, mind and strength. I know for I have seen him walk the walk. I am excited for the ward to get to know him and love him. He truly becomes a greater man in every sense as he serves the Lord.

YAY!! He will be awesome, I'm sure! He even LOOKS like a Bishop to me! :) Good luck with the new calling!
I love Bishop Holmes! I'm so excited once again for the Holmes family to receive such special blessings...for Bishop! I know my daddy will miss serving as one serves as Bishop. It is a lot of love that goes into that calling...so hard to walk away after giving so much of yourself...but the Lord knows what is best for ward families. It will be so lovely to live in California next summer with Bishop Holmes being the bishop for the Auburndale Ward!
Soooooo Wonderful!!!!!!!
Oh my goodness...what exciting news. I know that he will be a great bishop for us... and you will be a great "mom" of the ward.
I am sorry that I could not be there today. I am raising my hand here in Utah in sustaining support.
Hugs, Lura
He looks so Bishop-ish. Lucky ward. (who are his counselors?)
Congratulations! You will be a great bishop's wife:) It's quite a blessing.
