The spirit is really helping us in this work. Our Relief Society President was inactive so I felt to take another sister in the Branch and go visit her and say that one of the responsibilities of the RS Presidency is to teach the lesson once a month so would she come and teach the class this Sunday? I was so nervous and prepared to have to convince her. Instead she just said "Yes". Could have blown me over with a feather. And she did come and did teach and it was great. Then I was talking to a young man and the young Elders and they were talking about a young man in the Branch that wasn't going to come to church today so I said to go and get him. They were surprised and said he wouldn't be ready. I told them to wait for him. So they did and right in the middle of my Sacrament meeting talk I saw them walk in-with him! So that was two exta people that swelled our numbers to 25 attending Sacrament meeting. But it was really rewarding.
The Stake President finally spoke with us and gave us our marching orders. There is a program here where you pick some people and the missionaries (us and the young Elders) go and teach them the missionary discussions again. This is for the less actives and the part member families. We are excited to get started.
And yes, Elder Pack and I were the speakers in Sacrament Meeting. Everyone said what a great job I did and no one seemed to notice that I skipped reading a line of the talk. So who was really listening right?:)
