All good things must end. We know we didn’t come on this mission to party so we are truly ready to get back to work after a four week shutdown of the Temple. We have loved our time of service in the “garden” and dusting chandeliers and “skirt boards”. (Baseboards for all us Americans)
Our final day of physical work was on Friday and we, again, were outside. It began as beautiful Jacket Day Weather. There is such a sense of peace and beauty on these grounds. We collected branches so the mowing of the grounds can begin the week. Spring is just around the bend!
We both commented throughout this break that hard physical work instills in us more of a sense of pride and ownership in this Temple. I am so thankful for the time I’ve had to work and reflect and talk to myself while being outdoors.
This last Saturday, we helped our good friends, the Allens, move down the road to a small Council House flat. After theee years of service, they are leaving the Temple. We were so happy to end our week with this project. It helped us (me) not feel so distraught about missing our little, beautiful Ellie Fuentes’ baptism. We are so happy for her!
My love from jolly ol’ England,
Sister Seaman....aka Mom and Grams
