It has been a busy week. Monday we went to Cardiff, Wales for mission football. Twice a year the mission gets together in two groups and plays football (soccer). 3 zones in Cardiff and 4 in the other area. It was a good day. We met many neat Elders and Sisters. We also had time to talk to Pres and Sister Ogden. Wednesday we went to Gloucester to zone training by Pres. Ogden. They are training all the missionaries everywhere the new way of presenting the lessons. We had it in the MTC but none of the Elders or Sisters have had it yet. We spent 5 hours in training and then hurried back because Sister Henry was going visiting Teachidng with a member of the ward. Thursday night we went Home Teaching with the High Priest Group leader. He is a very intreresting man. Long time member and very strong. He drives fast and we had a 30 minute trip on very narrow roads in the rain. But we made it and had a great visit. We arrived about 8:30 and they had dinner waiting for us. did not expect that but eat up we did. We did not get home untill 10 PM. Friday we delivered fliers about conference to people we have met with. Today Sister Henry will go to the RS session from last week at 3:00. At 5 we will attend the Saturday morning session and it will be live. Sunday we will go to the Stake Center (1 hr Drive) for Saturday night Priesthood Meeting. Back to Hereford just in time for a 1:00 rebroadcast of Saturday afternoon session and then 5:00 live broadcast of Sunday Morning session. So we get all but one of the sessions. I guess we could listen to it on the internet at 9:00 PM. we'll see.
Monday we head for Glouster to do a flat inspection then to Cheltenham for another. Cheltenham were just notified that they will have to move and we have been asked to find them another flat. So we will just get them started preparing the flat to move out of it. Then we head for Birmingham for a couples get together. We are going to tour a Jaguar factory. Then we will eat together and then go to the mission home for a presentation by Pres. Ogden. Either before the get together or after we will go to Costco. We will pick up several things we can't get anywhere else. Skippy Peanut butter for sure. Hopefully we can get some marshallos and Pumpkin mix. Anyway it will be a full day. Cheers and all that.
I forgot to mention that as we came back from Cardiff on Monday we passed right by the course where they were playing the Ryder Cup. We could see the tents all over the course and lots of people. Cheers again
Silly Elder. Don't you know? "Choosy Moms choose Jiff."
ReplyDeleteYou have to watch the Sunday afternoon session. It was the best one!
I suppose if you can't find those things we could mail them to you. At least the marshmallows anyway. Pumpkin would be expenively heavy. You can always roast your own : )
