Catching Up

At the end of October we had a visit to our mission from Elder Clayton & Sister Clayton .  We had a wonderful missionary meeting in the morning, lunch and then training and a special adult meeting that afternoon.  It was a Monday afternoon and we sere so excited to see that over 500 people attended.  What a wonderful surprise it was because of a work day and and transportation is not very easy.  This is saying goodby to them at the airport on Tuesday morning.   Elder and Sister Ellis were also visiting, but due to flight problems had already flown out to Maputo.

These three pictures are of craftsmen here in Beira.  We purchased a nativity from then.  As you can see, it was a windy day, very pleasant. 

We just had to take this picture.  Usually the people are just standing, jam packed in the box of the trucks, but this  truck bed had plastic chairs?  Do you think he was able to charge more for the ride?

This is a typical picture (other than our daughter Melissa ) of what a piano lesson is like.  We usually set up 2 or 3 keyboards and other students practice while I give lessons at the bigger organ.  This is in the Manga Chapel.
