Well, this week Kali's school was hosting Sean Covey and trying to display the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, I was able to help out and take a few of the visitors around the school.  I talked to another Mom, we were chatting about catholic schools, I told her that I went through the Catholic system as a kid.  I told her that I am LDS and she asked how I would ever change religions, it was nice to bear my testimony to her.  She subs at the school a lot and knows that a lot of the staff and students are LDS too, she seems impressed by the community we have and how nice everyone is.  What a miracle it was to have a gospel conversation, actually that was our ward goal for the week, the Lord works in mysterious ways.  I wasn't even expecting it to happen since I didn't think I talked to non-church goers very often. 
So, I had a very embarrassing moment today at church.  I was asked to say the closing prayer in Sunday School, I did so and maybe I wasn't loud enough.  I had said something like being thankful for the Savior, Jesus Christ, someone in the front row said "Amen" right after that... I was so thrown off that I just said "Amen" too and sat down.  My face was so red, I'm sure.  I wanted to run away and never come back.  Spencer was sympathetic but said he'd never heard anything like that before, and one guy thought it was so funny that he was going to start a journal and write about it.  Great, I wish I were never born, jk.

  2. Your prayer was nice, and even though I was in teh far corner, I heard almost all of it. It is nice to know I wasn't hearing things too. It was near the end of your prayer that the words got a bit quiet, so I thought I was mistaken when someone else said Amen, and then you did too afterwards. Either way, no big deal.

    Way to go on your Missionary Experience!
