This morning, we performed our normal Red Cross service; it was a very slow day on the 6th floor, so Elder Gowans was able to finish up his study of the October General Conference. Sister Gowans had her normal busy day of inputting patient comments.

This afternoon, we worked on the first outline of Friday's institute class. We will be studying the 121st section of the doctrine and covenants, studying the principles of the priesthood.

This evening, we had a great turnout of soldiers at FHE. There were 11 of us present. Sister Estep provided a  meal of Spaghetti and garlic bread. We had a lesson on the gift of being able to share the gospel that we are all so thankful for. Then we all went around the room and stated something we were all thankful for. Afterwards, we all played a great game of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The Gowans family will remember that game and how much we all enjoyed it.

We have coordinated and arranged everything we need to do for Thanksgiving. We will be shuttling around 20 soldiers to the Fordham's; plus we will need to pick up the van and also pickup tables and chairs.
