Once a week we have District Training Meeting with our
District.
We live 3 ½ hours by car from
where they meet each week.
So, we and
the other Senior Couples are patched into a group phone call.
However, this week we all gathered
together.
One of the assignments I have
been given by the Mission President’s wife is to put together a collection of
healthy, simple, and inexpensive recipes for the missionaries to make.
My family knows my Sloppy Joes Recipe.
I wrote it up and submitted it to the mission
newsletter.
I broke up the
ingredients needed into small assignments and gave each companionship of
missionaries, junior and senior an assignment.
We met at the chapel an hour early.
I set up 3 cooking stations so that more of the Elders and Sisters could
participate and together we chopped veggies and cooked the meat.
Our district has Elders and Sisters from the
States, Australia, Pacific Islands, Asia and Fiji.
We are a very diverse group, so, we brought
Rice Cookers and cooked rice.
We had
Sloppy Joe on buns, or rice (or both!) with celery and carrot sticks with cookies
for dessert.
It was so fun to get
together and experience the energy of the younger missionaries. After we ate,
we had our District Meeting all together.
Wish we could do this each week!
