Saturday Tasks

Our Saturdays may be our early day, but it also has some of our favorite collections of people. As we joined with our Institute class this morning we mentioned that we only have one class remaining for the current course we are studying. We presented several options for what to do between completing these lessons and time to begin the next course. The majority wanted to continue meeting weekly. We would prefer that instead of taking six weeks off. The optional course that was selected is on scripture study. We are pleased with their choice.

Saturday morning is also when we look forward to computer visits with our family. We were able to speak with almost everyone. Kaylee and Jaren were off on other adventures. We enjoy seeing each them and hearing their reports on their week.

This afternoon Elder Oveson had meetings, and Sister Oveson spent that time taking care of odds and ends that there doesn't seem to be time to accomplish. She managed to make a batch of bread dough, using half to make a loaf and the other half as Chicken Roll-ups. The sewing machine we inherited from a former senior couple was put to use to make some alterations. Sometimes it is good to have a little time to stay home.

Another important Saturday task ... writing the letter to family and friends. So thankful for all who give their prayers, love and support as we serve on the other side of the world.
