This morning we taught Yingping. We are worried about her. She reiterated that she is a very logical person and some of what we are teaching her is not fitting in with her ideas of what is logical. We talked about faith. We showed her “Finding Faith in Christ” and she said she was a lot like the fellow that Thomas was talking to who wasn’t believing everything said about Christ. In her prayer she pretty much said that she didn’t think she could accept everything and that she didn’t understand why she had been chosen to receive these teachings. We go back on Saturday.
We went back to our old flat and picked up the dryer that actually heats up, a fan, some scissors, and dishcloths. The elders just want to be sure that we bring them their old “cold air dryer.”
We did some shopping, lined the dresser drawers and unpacked our suitcases. Then we went to dinner at the ward mission leader’s home. They are a young married couple. They bought an old house and renovated it. They’ve done a good job with it. They explained their view of what’s been going on in the ward and what they want to see happen with missionary work in the ward. Then we had a meeting with the stake president, President Cahoon and us. The stake president has been out of town and has been trying to find out where truth is on the whole mess in this ward. It was a good meeting, but we aren’t sure where all the problems were coming from. We just plan to go in and start trying to do missionary work and not worry about all the “he said,” “she said,” “they said,” that’s been happening.

That is funny that the Elders want a cold dryer. I do love your counter space. That is how much we had in one of our apartments too!

And now our dryer has died. It's back to the clothesline. The lack of counterspace keeps me from wanting to bake a bunch of fattening stuff.
