Power in being together

Last night was our third week of Institute and it was pure joy.  To be able to stand in that room, nearly full, with those powerful young people was awesome.  After class, one of the young ladies, Tahi Sekona, said, "I could have listened to you all night".  It wasn't my teaching skills that were being spoken of, but the spirit that was in that room.  I could've spent the whole evening with them!

Sisters Heridas and Smith had invited a new investigator to come to class.  Her name is YanYan and she's a graduate student from China.  She arrived, at the building, before the missionaries and walked in the room with such confidence to introduce herself.  She found her own way to a church meeting a few weeks ago and I certainly hope she returns.  I love having investigators in the classroom.  When you're teaching about eternal truths it doesn't matter where you step into the conversation.  Jordan was there again last night and I'm confident that he's going to find his way into the waters of baptism.

Yesterday afternoon we met with a doctor here in Australia.  When we arrived, back in November, we came with a supply of our medications but certainly not enough for 18 months.  Brett Baker had told us about this doctor and she's a member of the church so she's acquainted with our time of service.  We explained that we're in good health and simply need prescriptions to renew our medications here in Australia.  She was very accommodating and we should be good to go.

This weekend is the big "multi-cultural" event here in Canberra so we'll go on Saturday.  There is a choir that has been put together, with church members, that will be singing on Sunday so Evelyn might be participating with that.
