Happy Halloween Everyone! Halloween over here isn’t celebrated over here in the same way it is at home. Our little Branch here in Beja worked really hard to have a party like they do in America.  They decorated everything and it turned out really great. Their “treat” table looked just like it would at home! Some of the members even dressed up. We dressed up as missionaries and we were pretty scary!! It was a fun time for all who came.
 
 
We also had a Branch service project this past week. We cleaned, trimmed, and weeded around the church and also in a large fruit orchard next to the church. The orchard is a part of the Church’s property. We actually ate several ripe oranges off of one of the trees. It was a beautiful and sunny day and just the right temperature to be working hard. Here are a few pics so that you will  believe that we really do work here on our mission!! Of course, like all church events, there was lunch afterward.

  1. Love it! I'm glad that Mom still got a Halloween party even though she wasn't home to throw one herself. :) I also love the pictures of the service project. Good to see you guys and the members out there. Miss you!
