Saturday has come and is almost gone again in Cambodia, yet today was far from a typical Saturday if there is such a thing. We had our Institute class this morning with 18 in attendance. The lessons we are covering for a few weeks are on Scripture Study, and today was Study Aids in the Scriptures. With all the PowerPoint presentations we have created in recent weeks, this became an excellent method of presenting information about using the "Tool-Box" of all the Study Aids. We had great participation, and we even learned a few new things we didn't know before. We also spent a few minutes discussing using the digital Study Aids on their mobile devices and LDS.org on their computers.
Our weekly Skype calls are such a treasure to us. During one call we were entertained by two grand daughters, a three year old showing us her ice cream cone (and face), and her five year old cousin who recited the "Builders" poem she learned during her first few weeks of Kindergarten. What a joy to visit with each of these precious little ones who are growing up so fast.
Elder Oveson was given a reprieve from his usual Saturday afternoon Stake Presidency meeting, which had been moved to Tuesday this week. Instead we spent the afternoon editing and writing documents and letters, getting groceries, and updating our blog. This evening was a Self-Reliance Symposium. The speakers were President Eng, the president of the North Stake, and President Veasna, president of the East District.
