Hello!
Guess what?! Guess what?! I'm in Philly! I finally made it
to Philly :) We were a little worried about today if it was going
to work out or not because it has been raining all weekend long... Luckily,
though, the rain stopped this morning and the sun came out. (I guess Heavenly
Father heard my prayers.) And to answer your question, Mom, I haven't
heard of any flooding, but there was a lot of water on the roads yesterday
and the creeks were very full.
Moira, a member in our ward who nannies, took us to Philly
today with the kids she cares for. We started off at the touch and feel
museum with the kids and it was so fun! Right now we're eating lunch in
the Reading Terminal Market which is basically just a huge food
court place with various types of food. Our next venture is to the
temple and then to Liberty Bell and Love
Park . I also believe we'll go to
the art museum and anywhere else we can make it today. I love it so
far and I'm so excited for the rest of the day. I'll send pictures
next week :).
Since I'm emailing in the market, my email is going to be a
little short today... Sorry,but I'll tell you all about it next week!
Femi's baptism is next Sunday and I am so excited! We met
with him yesterday and he is doing so well. We asked how his readings
were going and he told us that he is reading the Book of Mormon from
the beginning and the end. He is also reading the Bible from Genesis,
the Doctrine and Covenants, True to the Faith, and the Gospel
Principles book! He is excited for his baptism next week and he finally
told his wife that he is getting baptized! He said that he thinks she will
be baptized after she gets her "trainings" in. (Femi calls our
lessons trainings.)
We were only able to see Manuela on Monday night this week
for FHE and it went well. We played Plan of Salvation "Life"
with her and her kids. After a little while her kids lost interest in the
game so we quickly finished and answered Manuela's questions afterward.
She was going to come to church yesterday (she even got work off) but her
son got sick. Hopefully we'll see her this week sometime!
I loved the Women's Broadcast on Saturday! It was so good
and the best part was when President Eyring said that he was baptized
in Philadelphia ! :) hehe I
can't wait for General Conference this weekend! So excited!
Well, I'm going to end there so I can get back to my
Philly adventures! It sounds like you've had a busy week, though. I
hope you have a wonderful week! Love you all!
Love,
Sister Davis
