For language study night we made Easter Egg cookies. Sherry used the cool cookie cutter she made and baked about eight dozen cookies. Takes a while in our tiny oven. Then the students decorated them. We also learned the words - and actions - to Book of Mormon Stories and Popcorn Popping. After we were done the elders came by and took plates of cookies to less active families.
Baptism tomorrow morning. A nineteen-year-old which is just the right age as far as we are concerned! Our first sports day is tomorrow afternoon. The missionaries play American football or Frisbee for a couple of hours and invite others to play with them. Builds friendships and is fun, too. I think it's good for the missionaries to have something like that to look forward to. The young missionaries work really hard in an environment that can be difficult at times. Lots more drinking in the summer time so they get to deal with drunk people a little more than in the winter. Plus those white shirts and ties stand out!
The district has also scheduled a service project tomorrow cleaning up an area and planting flowers. We will go to the baptism and probably not be able to make the other activities.
