On Friday morning when I walked outside a single duck came walking up looking for a hand-out and so I gave it a slice of bread. Since I have not fed the ducks for over a month, this one must have a great memory. Then it was back to serving in the office – my desk looked like there had been a yellow snow storm of post-it-notes. Sisters Stegelmeier and Herrera came to say hello and pick up some supplies. They are doing a great job in the Davie’s area.

  

Today was the first Friday of the month so that meant Zone Leader’s Council was held this morning at the Mission Home. Then about 3:00 most of the ZLs came in to pick up supplies that their zone needed. Elders Edwards and Osborn were the first to check in. Elders Torres and Beer build up a big stack for their zones. Some also had to pick up some bicycles, talk to elder Bare, and drop off baptismal records. By the time they left the big stack of Books of Mormon in English and Spanish were basically wiped out so Mary immediately order more.

  

I like to take pictures of missionaries at the office window.

  

Elders Gust and Skousen show off their best poses while elders Plowman and Shipley rest up after a mind stretching council. One of the things that everyone wants are chapel cards. Mary printed the sheets to order and then the missionaries had to cut them out or take the sheets to their zones and let the missionaries cut their own out. Elder Gust became a master chapel card trimmer…well at least he cut out a lot of cards.
