Wed. Nov. 12 The church was shampooed today, so we held our enrichment activites in our trailer. I was a little panicked at first which Sister Curley didn't show up to teach our first crocheting class, and there were 6 ladies ready to go. The only thing I know how to crochet is leper bandages and edging on burp pads. But she finally showed up and she and her sister Genevieve along with Sister Dia patiently taught everyone how to make granny squares. We had 10 wonderful ladies working and laughing non-stop for a couple of hours. When you look at their faces, you'll see part of the joy we feel as we serve here. They are great. Four of the sisters had never crocheted before, so they learned something new. Three were non-members. This has been a good sisterhood bonding activity.
The last hour of the activity, I talked to 6 of the sisters about writing their spiritual history, which will be part of the Ganado Branch History I hope to compile before we leave.
