One would think I’m a foodie!

One of my favorite meals when eating in is a salad.
It is so colorful and full of nutrition and tasty too!

I was hoping to be able to report that I had accomplished my goal of last week which was to have all missionaries lacking their MMR be vaccinated. Unfortunately, a couple of the clinics where I had arranged to send missionaries ran out of vaccine so tomorrow I hope to get back on track and complete the goal.

I spent an evening in the ER this week with a missionary who had a bike accident. Fortunately no broken bones but stiff and sore.

I was blessed to enjoy lunch on two days with sisters.  One of the highlights of my week!

I accompanied missionaries who don’t have cars to appointments to get MMR vaccinations on two days and I am preparing a presentation for upcoming zone conferences so I have managed to stay busy.

Sunday evening I invited Sister Bunker, who teaches English as a second language, and Lillian who is one of her students to come to my home for dinner.  Lillian and her son, Kevin, brought me brownies and chocolate. I had mentioned to Lillian in the hall one evening after English class that I am a “chocoholic” and she didn’t forget!  (I had to explain what a chocoholic is and she thought that was humorous.)  It was a pleasant evening.

Monday evening was senior couples Family Home Evening. It was my turn to organize so I opted to eat out at a restaurant. We ate at Bushman’s Grill. I had ribs and salad. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the sauce was.

It has been a routine week without much opportunity to be out and taking pictures but my love for you my family and friends continues to grow.

I am grateful for this beautiful world in which I live.

What a beautiful gift

I am grateful to be able to serve the Lord on this mission.  I am learning daily and my faith grows stronger in my Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ.  The Book of Mormon testifies of Him and contains the information I need to know in order to follow the path back to my Heavenly Home.

I love my Savior and I love you my family and friends.
