first Sunday June 14, 2015

We arrived safely with a personal drive to greet us at the airport and take us through the maze of traffic that led to the bit of heaven on earth called the CCM.  We had a tour and dinner and met so many people last night and then today  I attended RS where Hermana Call of the Presidency gave an excellent lesson to these missionaries and their need to defend the proclamation of the family.  We looked up scriptures to support each paragraph and shared them with others.  I attended a district meeting with the supervising Hermana conducted.  We sang, prayed and shared feeling and testimony.  We then went to our sacrament meeting where these  young missionaries were prepared with a talk to give.  They are always supposed to be prepared to give a talk so if their name is called they can speak on a moments notice.  The branch president announced that certain elders and sisters would speak and in what order and they came up and spoke in their newly acquired Spanish of one, two or five weeks of training.  A sister played the piano and another led the music.  They all pray very well in Spanish. We have attended two devotionals today and now we chose not to watch the movie ,"meet the Mormons" but to get a little more situated in our dormatorio.  I have a lot to learn.
