This morning we were able to get a good start on Friday's institute class. We were supposed to have had DDM today with the young Elders in our district, but most had a case of food poisoning. Then this afternoon Elder Gowans went to mow a sister's lawn, but she was not home, so he weeded her flower and vegetable garden.

This evening we attended a baptism for a young 9 year old young lady. She is very sweet, her baptism was a  wonderful experience for her and everyone who was there. Afterward we visited a family whose husband will deploy shortly after his twin boys are born. Once he deploys he won't see them for 9 months. These boys will be their first children. We were able to educate them on our mission and to let them know we will be there for her whenever she needs us.
