Our Walk Was Rained Out

Our luck with not having rain first thing in the morning finally came to an end today. The alarm went off at 5:15 and we got up and got ready for our walk, but just before we walked out the door Sister Oveson looked out. She then opened the door to our little patio and walked out and stuck her hand out, just to verify her suspicion, it was sprinkling. We have learned over the months that a little sprinkle can lead to a real downpour in not many minutes, so we decided to forget our walk. That was a very wise choice because it was raining very hard within ten minutes, we would have gotten drenched this morning.

When we got to the Service Center the gutters were already full, so we took one of the limited spots inside the gate. Again with the early rain we did not know if it was going to be one of those days when it decided to continue on for hours or not. Fortunately by time we went to run some errands this afternoon it had stopped raining and the day ended without many clouds in the sky at all. If we believe the weatherman then we may get rained out again tomorrow, but we will get up and get ready because we all know how often the weathermen miss in their forecast of when it will actually rain.

There was plenty to do at the office today. We had our weekly coordinating meeting with Phanna and Sameth. That is an important meeting because we learn what is going on and also what the others need help on. We found out today how bad Phanna wanted us to go with him and Chad next month out to the Kaits. Elder Oveson had a conflict with a training meeting in his stake calling, but got permission this afternoon to be excused from it.

Tomorrow we have been asked to do the mini-training in the weekly devotional for the Service Center. As we thought and prayed about what we should do it on, we decided to use the Powerpoint that we created with the other Self-Reliance Missionaries about Delegation The Lord's Way. We have gone through it several times and feel like we are ready, now we need to pray hard that it will make sense and will help those that we train.

It tonight's collage we have a picture of tonight's sunset, some of the Sister Missionaries that came by the Service Center today, if you have a load to carry just use your head, our daily ladder on a moto, the hotel is a landmark we pass every day, it is being remodeled and recently changed names, and a typical pack of motos.
