First Month of Mission Done

I can't believe a whole month of our mission is finished.  It seems like a year ago we entered the MTC and yet I can't believe how quickly time flys by.  We have done a lot, seen a lot, felt a lot, and come 1/3 of the way around the world. 
Elder Jennings is doing very well in the office.  He is so smart.  It's a good thing because there is a lot to remember and learn.  We have to know how to do each step of the loan process, when to enter it on the computer, what to enter, when to get the money, where to send it to, when to call the student, how to find the students, when to get the students to go get an account at the bank, etc.  I understand about 1/4 of what he knows, it will come though.  He is the right man for this call.  I have seen his strength and his sensitivity to the spirit grow.  I love him so much.
We had dinner today with the other missionary couples and 2 Elders.  It was a wonderful hour we spent together. The men did the dishes and the women were kind enough to let them.

There are 4 main buildings on the church compound.  The first is the Mission Offices that is also apartments for the missionary couples, plus apartments for visiting authorities.
The next building is a 3 storied building that has many offices in it for Church Employees.  Elder Jennings and I have an office on the bottom floor by the front door.
The next building has offices in it, Bishop Offices, Stake President Offices, & classrooms.  The fourth building is the chapel and cultural hall.
Today we went to SM.  During the meeting we were told 3 young men were getting baptised after the block of meetings.  After SM we walked to the classroom building and were met with water everywhere.  Someone had turned on the water to the font and forgot to turn it off.  OOOPS.  A little mopping went on, and class went on a scheduled.

Yesterday was a full day.  We spent many hours calling PEF students.  It was wonderful to start getting to know them.  They were all very kind and welcoming in their attitudes towards us.  My heart was lifted up in happiness and gratefulness to be able to know them.  I hope I get to meet many of them.  Some asked when I would be in their area.  We are to train the leaders at least once a year.  All but one stake are trained for this year.  We are going to try to go to that Stake in a month or so.  Then the training really begins.
