Welcome, welcome Sabbath Morning, now we rest from every care! (Well, at least until tomorrow.)
The past week has been better, although I think my trainer (who is so good, by the way) is amazed at my stupidity! No, really she has been very patient with me and has "dumbed" things down where I can almost understand what I'm supposed to be doing. I do have a better vision of how to use Family Search/Family Tree, and the church really is trying to make it user-friendly. I even printed out a couple of sheets for ordinance work for a couple of "lost" relatives, and had the cards printed at the Salt Lake Temple on Friday, where we went as a group of missionaries. Clair and I were privileged to be the Witness Couple.
Yesterday, we met Amy and Michael and their friends at the Bountiful Temple. We had another card printed for Whitney to use when their ward comes to do Baptisms for the dead this Tues. This lady is a granddaughter of one of my great grandma's. She was "illigitimate" and was raised by her Grandma and her step Grandpa, so that's who we're sealing her too! I've decided those relatives of mine from England were not very moral!
Ben and Kennedy stopped to see us last Sunday evening on their way back from St. George, helping Ben's Mom move. Thanks Fryars and Pedersens; it helps so much to see family, so everyone - COME!
Tomorrow we start more training in the HRDA Zone. Our zone leader says that we are basically "glorified indexers." From the general public who do the initial indexing to the arbitrators, who check the general public's work and make corrections if necessary, to us, who have the final say. Clair forgot to mention that he (he says "we") are being called as Assistant Zone Leaders, and that when the Zone leaders go home in October, "We" will be the new Zone leaders. They need a computer-engineer/smart person to help them figure things out. That's Elder Davis, and I am along for the ride!
Shawn finished his classroom work this past week (hope it went well Shawny boy - we were praying for you!) Have a good rest this week before you start rotations the week after.
I understand that the Dallings, Fryars and Klinglers up in Rexburg have all been one big sick happy family this past week! So sorry - hope you are all doing better.
Congratulations on doing so well with your lambs at the fair Fryars!
Happy Birthday this month to Whitney, Lincoln, Troy and Eliza. I know some of you have anniversaries, but I can't keep up with them, so Happy Anniversary to all of you!
Keep praying for us; we do for you.
Love to all - Mom/Grandma/Carolyn
