OVERLOAD

We have just realized that we are changing: our culture, location, home, daily activities or job, driving habits, our ward, our diet, friends, climate, and our daily focus all at he SAME time and immediately. AND we are over 60!! Can we do this? Today after being lost for about and hour and a half, driving in circles and on the left side of the street most of the time, well I tried hard, we were beginning to wonder if we had it in us. We are so tired by 7 or 8 pm and we just don't feel like we have done that much.

BINTULU BRANCH PRIMARY CHILDREN

We do sleep very well. Don't wake up at all during the night. We are determined to do this and we will!! With your prayers we will for sure make it.

The pic above is the branch's primary and they sang a song and the Pres asked me to take this pic so I did. We were told today in District meeting by the young elders that the president was smiling for the first time in a long time because he finally had his own couple here to help. They really do rely heavily on the couples to help them run their branch. I have spent over 2 hours with him so far and only accomplished a few simple things. He does speak English but very limited and I think he gets about 50% of what I am saying and I probably get less. They are so strong. They had over 100 members come to meeting Sunday and it has been only in the 60 to 70's in attendance.

Only one set of elders know Iban. They are taught Indo in the MTC and come pretty well set for that and then have to learn Iban which is close but not Indo.

Short one tonight.
