Daily Bread

We didn't have a lot going on this week, most of Sister Mundell's time was devoted to making preparations for a mission-wide conference for both the seniors and the younger missionaries that we will be having when Elder Dale G. Renlund of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles and his wife visit us on Friday. She was asked to do this, along with Sister Lee, to help relieve some of the burden off our mission leader Sister Andersen.  Cathy says it involves a lot of coordination, planning, and logistics.  We will report back on how everything went next week.

Sister Mundell helped the relief society sisters in the Olomana ward make cute turkey candy jar centerpieces on Wednesday.  We still have several more of these jars, and she says we will be busy doing this activity at several more places this month until they're gone.

Elder Mundell had the assignment to bake homemade bread for sacrament meeting in both wards this week, and the loaves turned out looking pretty well. Unfortunately he forgot to add salt, a key ingredient, so the bread tasted fine, no complaints, but it didn't taste as good as the loaves he learned to make last month.  Luckily, he'll get another chance in December to perfect his recipe.  We enjoy helping out the wards any way we can.

We played some Bible trivia on Thursday evening with the men at One Hope Ministries.  A couple of other guys showed up who hadn't been there before that were experts on the Bible, so it turned out to be an especially fun evening for them. Here's a picture of three of the residents there we see every week, who really enjoy our visits.
