A SPECIAL SACRAMENT MEETING

Dec. 20th

Elder Rasband, a recently called Apostle, visited our Sacrament Meeting today.  He greeted each sister warmly and found that he had recently been in a couple of sisters countries.  He organized a stake covering India and Pakistan and while in Pakistan Sister Rasheed's brother interpreted for him.
He said he couldn't hug Sister Rasheed so he gave her a kiss on her hand and said that was her family in Pakistan.  She thanked him.

SOUTH TWO ZONE ACTIVITY

For a zone activity South 2 went to the Park Lane Senior Living  residence to sing Christmas Carols and sit and visit with the residents.  As we sang the Christmas Carols it was so fun to see the residents join in with us.  They were a delightful group and we are so happy we had the opportunity to bring some cheer to them this Christmas season.
