Time flies on weeks like this last one. We took 6 elders to Suriname on Tuesday, prepared food for transfer day on Wednesday, picked up elders from the airport on Friday and Saturday, and went to Linden today to get a temporary missionary to serve for the next 6 weeks.
Elder Beutler also helped a set of elders move from
one apartment to another yesterday while I stayed home and did laundry,
made bread, and cleaned up the house.
I don't know if it was the 8 hours of sitting in a car on Tuesday or what, but on Thursday,
I picked up a box of Books of Mormon and hurt my back in the process.
I walked with a crooked back for the rest of the day and took Ibuprofen
and prayed that the damage could be fixed.
I have been so blessed that way. The next morning, the pain had eased up enough so that I could walk straight again and by Saturday,
I was able to do my work without any problem. I will be more careful
about what I lift from now on. I am not as young as I used to be and I
need my back to keep working for me for many more years to come.
Tonight we attended a YSA fireside where our
district president talked a small number of young people about what they
would like to have happen and activities to encourage a better
attendance and have the young people get more excited about being with
other members of the church. If any of you have some good ideas about
good activities for young single adults, please share with us. We have
not been that age for many years.
We hope that all is well with all you and we really love your
letters and skype visits. Amy we pray that your last 6 months will be
the best.
Love Mom and Dad
