Nina and I both spoke in Sacrament Meeting in our assigned Ward this afternoon. She gave a great talk. Mine went OK (I never know how my talks really go). An hour later I taught the lesson in Priesthood Meeting in the High Priest Group. I also felt that went pretty well. This is a good ward and we’re starting to get to know a few people in the Ward.

The Center wasn’t particularly busy today. I’m pretty sure it was because today is Mother’s Day and people were attending to that rather than sight seeing. On Sunday mornings we’re only there two and a half hours from 9am to 11:30am. The Center usually gets busier on Sunday afternoons.

Because the young missionaries are allowed to call home on Mother’s Day, Nina and I have been taking our computers over to the Center so the sister missionaries can use Skype to make a video call back home. They are all so excited to see their family and talk about their mission. We take the laptops over for them to use so they can walk around the Center showing their family back home where they spend their time. It has been delightful watching them talk with their mothers over the past couple of days.

Our Mother’s Day was also very nice. Thanks to all who called to talk with your mother. I can’d say enough about how nice that is.

So, the dishes are done, I’ve only got one small mess to clean up and put away, and we’re ready to call it a night. We’ve got the weekly Visitors’ Center Training Meeting tomorrow morning at 7:30 am and with that, another great week in this little corner of paradise starts up!

Live is sanguine!
