Mission Adventures: Mike and Debbie: Whistle While We Work, Work, Work.

Delivery Week March 14th through March 20th

We spent plenty of time on the road making deliveries to alot of our outlaying missionary apartments.

We delivered emergency food, (rice, beans, wheat), smoke/carbon monoxide detectors installed and did repairs along the way.

Plumbing, his not so favorite thing to do.

Elders are always anxious to help.

Looking on and hopefully learning some skills.

I always deliver cookies wherever we go and found this thank you note

His heavy bag of tricks (tools really).

Elders view from their house in Carmen, Durazno.

Finally, a fan!

Locksmith skills.

Trying to make a key from our house key. The elders lost theirs and
were climbing in the front window to get into their house.

Using the cement to grind down the key.

Fixing beds.

Hold the hammer the other way Elder. It works better!

Instructions always given on how to test and use the new detectors.

Fixing electrical.

The hermanas and their favorite things to sleep with!

Ceiling repair to keep the bugs out!

Hanging white boards.

More bed repairs. The hermanas said that sometimes during the middle of
the night their mattress would fall to the floor.
They always laugh and giggle when things here in the mission are not
perfect and they fall victims. Hermanas are so awesome!

More electrical.

Bedtime buddies.

Toilet repair.

Putting on window screens.

The security bars make putting on screens complicated.

Instructions.

This is their emergency food. We taped all three bottle together with
packing tape and then put the "How to Use" instructions in
between the bottles. They are laminated so hopefully the instructions
will last as long as the food.
