We found the church!




Today we set off early to find a English speaking branch and it was a miracle we did! It was in this hotel type building and we went in and they got a copy of conference and were watching it! Yeah! We walked in and David H. Burton was speaking-it was awesome! Members after were so welcoming and friendly, one sister was even so kind as to offer us lunch at her home afterward. There was a baptism held immediately after meetings and we were invited to join them for that. It was great for Jessica to experience that. EmmaLi and I had to hang out in the hallway she was kind of melting down a bit but, it ended up kind of cool because I was able to converse with some members there as well. I wish I could elaborate but, we have to get up early tomorrow for the tb testing appointment. We feel your prayers and appreciate them so much. We are getting anxious to get home and won't know if we even have a flight for a couple more days but, we know Heavenly Father has taken care of us this far He will not leave us alone now. We know it is because of many of you, thank you!

EmmaLi is doing so great (we think she might even be putting on some weight which is exciting. We know we have a long road ahead of us of working on some things but, already we feel her walking has improved especially since buying the squeaky shoes. She wants to walk everywhere now! She is such a delight-I just wanna squeeze her all day (unfortunately she won't let me yet). I did get some pictures of the font at the baptism and the branch we were at but, for some reason only the pictures from Jon's camera will download on the blog. I will have to post later with those but, I'll just pick some fun ones you haven't seen yet!

That talk reminded me of you! "Dry up the tears of an orphan" and helping and aiding neighbors.

You are an amazing example of this talk. You'll have many talks to catch up on when you get back. BTW you missed the stake shake up. No we are not back in the same ward but the stake president is.........President Hollist!

Love reading about your guys adventures!
