Hermana Cook and I were invited to speak at the Hermana's Zone Conference today. My topic was on safety in the streets and safety in the house. I did a powerpoint with some basic ideas and mixed a "wheel of fortune" type game in it. No fortunes other than m&m's. If you guessed incorrectly, you lost a m&m and if you guessed a letter correctly you won a m&m. We also sang a primary song in a round, Listen to the Still Small Voice. It was not in the Spanish Children's Songbook, so I translated it as best as I could, and then Mike put the finishing touches on it.
Hermana Cook talked about managing our thoughts, desires, and actions.
Hermana King and Hermana Bertuoli gave a great presentation on recognizing the Spirit.
Because Hermana Cook and I were busy preparing our talks, Mary was able to come and cook the lunch. But Hermana Cook went all out on the dessert!
We did the conference in the mission home. We were able to use this wonderful flat screen for our powerpoints! I brought my HDMI cable just for such an occasion! |
Hermana King and Hermana Bertuoli prepared a sweet thank you for everyone. |
Chicken, mushroom stroganoff, green beans, homemade rolls, and fruit salad. |
Brownie and ice cream, smothered in chocolate syrup with strawberries and nuts sprinkled on top. |
The hermanas were so overwhelmed by such a treat, that they were all taking pictures before they ate Hermana Cook's beautiful and scrumptious dessert. |
The Elderes would have just wolfed it down without appreciating the beauty of it all! |
