We flew to Choibalsan this week to check
on our 4 water stations that are being built there and to finish
arranging the details for the two dentists we are bringing to Mongolia.
We are attaching some pictures. The four water stations will supply
water for about 2400 people.
We have another class starting Monday
for Mongolian English Teachers. They love our classes. Four of the
missionaries teach them--divided into two separate classes.
We are doing good other than it is really warm here, probably just like it is in where you all live.
We
spoke in church in Choibalsan. A five minute talk is a ten minute talk
because we have to have a translator. A translator is like a painter.
A good painter makes a carpenter into a good carpenter, and a good
translator makes a speaker into a good speaker:)
This
is Laurie--In Relief Society, the teacher turned the last 10 minutes over
to Sister Harper--the new mission President's wife--and me. They wanted
us to teach them something. Well, she's learning Mongolian, but still
can't communicate real well, so we told them about our families:) They
thought it was cool that we each have so many children and Gkids:) We
think it's wonderful, too!
Pres
Harper was interviewing and calling a new branch president. After
announcing that in Sacrament meeting, nothing else had been planned,
so...the 4 of us spoke. We had been given some advance notice, which
was good:)
It's Sunday night and we're back in UB. We keep on keeping on:)
