So Busy Its Scary






We have hit the ground running. I mean we are really busy. I am not sure how mission offices survive with only one couple. We love the work and are finally feeling comfortable because we have done most tasks once and have had two Zone Conferences.
The spring was brought out an unexpected beauty to our area. Who knew it would be so lovely here? Every morning we drive along the tree lined parkway, under stone bridges lined with Canadian geese, to our building in a great outdoor mall. You know that makes me happy. We have participated in teaching and watching Alyssa Viruet be baptized. What a wonderful young lady. Because we live in Yonkers (which means hills) and the ward is in the Bronx we took a meal to the church to feed the six missionaries from our ward. They are great!
So different from each other but very dedicated to the work. We had a wonderful lesson after about listening to the Spirit as they watched Conference.
