Week 58--July 31-August 6, 2016
Wednesday was Zone Interview day. Sister Bertin, Sister Brady, and Sister Harrington all arrived in blue.
And on top of that we all had on white skirts. We decided that great minds run on the same track. This is not the first time that we have all arrived wearing the same color of clothes.
Tom read Jesus the Christ 50 years ago on his first mission but he has decided to read it again. He has set a goal to finish by the end of the year. Garnalee has been reading it for several months and is almost finished
On Monday for Family Home Evening we decided to go see the new Star Trek movie with the Broadheads. When we got to the movie theater the movie had already been pulled. Movies here don't usually stay for more than a couple of weeks. We hadn't seen the new Jason Bourne movie but the Broadheads had. They were willing to go again. So we went to see that movie. There was so much action and chasing of people that we were tired just watching it.
On Tuesday the Missionary Recommendation came through for our replacements. They are the Dicksons from New Hampshire and will arrive on December 17.
Tom had to go pick up lunch at the Mission Home for Mission Leadership Council on Thursday. The distance is three miles and the round trip normally takes 45 minutes to an hour. On this day the traffic was backed up on Zabarte and it took him 50 minutes to go from the Mission Office to Mission Home. He decided to take the back route on Maligaya coming back but is still took 30 minutes. Not a good day traffic wise in the Philippines.
