Church was so great today. We held sacrament meeting at our place today and we will be for the remains of our time because we have the most space in our flat for all of the people who attend. Today there were almost 30 in attendance, and it was fabulous. There was a sweet spirit that accompanied everyone as they gathered and it lingered for the rest of the day. We're so blessed to have worthy members of the priesthood in our group that can administer the sacrament to us each week. What a blessing that is.
Abby and Mikelle performed a musical number, "Come Come Ye Saints" and it was beautiful. They are both so talented and I love that they love to help us feel of our Saviors love through the spirit by sharing their talents with us. Abby arranged her own version on the guitar and she harmonized beautifully while Mikelle sang the melody.
In the past there have been 3 other ILP groups that come, but this week a fourth group made it. It was fun meeting them and getting to know them a little better. Although I will say, spending time with these other groups make me appreciate the girls I am with that much more. We have a very layed back group and after hearing about the others experiences, it is clear that we have a great attitude about China and the experience as a whole and it is really such a great thing. I'm grateful for that.
Today flew by. I got to skype Mom and Tarah for a lot of the day, which I'm sure had a great deal to do with that... and just like every other time, it was so great to talk to them. I love skype! and gmail chat, and google talk, and every other program that allows us to connect with eachother! I don't know who invented those... but I want to find out because I'm going to write them a thank you note. I love seeing them! It makes me excited to go home and just squeeze them! AH!
