Internet is wonderful! (But we miss it when it is down)

It was difficult to get up at 5:00 a.m. for our early institute class this morning, but it was well worth the effort. We had 19 come to our class today! What a wonderful lesson and great participation! Our lesson was on Becoming Good Shepherds.

After class we started our weekly FaceTime calls. Earlier this week the internet provider was traded, so in theory we were to have faster, better service. We were just finishing our first call and lost the internet. We tried for several minutes to reconnect but to no avail. There had been plans for a call to Salt Lake with Sameth and Phanna, but that wouldn't happen without the internet! We resorted to plan B and went to our apartment to finish our calls.

We finished our morning with our weekly grocery shopping and lunch. Then we had a Self Reliance Group Meeting with the South Stake at 2:00 p.m. which we planned to check on. Since it is taught in Khmer we planned to use the internet while we observed the group. To our disappointment there was still no service. The provider had been called but we were still blacked out. 

We spent our Saturday evening preparing for the Sabbath. Sunday's are always busy so we have to get a head start on Saturday.
