They are so happy and love how clean the apartment is! Aren't they the best!
Each Sunday Elder Sneddon does what he does best, teaches the English Sunday School class! How great it is for those of us that don't speak french.
If he isn't at church he is here at the office taking care of all the finances of the mission. He and Sister Sneddon are the BEST!!!!! We went to Kananga this month and saw our good missionaries. This time we took Pascal with us to evaluate the apartments and get them up to standard. After he worked so hard the three days we were there he said to me " I am strong like a lion in the jungle!"
He has the funniest sayings. We love Pascal. We couldn't do what we do without him!!
We attended district meeting with the elders in Kanaga. Here's President Cook teaching with them.
Another exciting thing that happened this month is the mission got a new car for the President of the mission. It's so nice and I am sooo nervous that we will put the first dent in it! It came just in time for our visit with Bishop Stevenson. It's a Toyota Foretunner . Never heard of that model in America but it's like the Toyota highlander has the two back seats in the far back.
President Cook goes and teaches with his missionaries as often as he can. He loves to teach with them. Here he is teaching with the sisters at the church after Sacrament meeting
Where ever we go President Cook seems to have a following of children. Between his whistling like a bird, snapping his nose, squeeking his palms together or playing Simon Says kids are drawn to him. Here are some of the faces of the children we love!
HereisFoundation from the Orphanage. We have gotten to be best buddies with him!While in Boma we were able to see William Bryce Vaudi. He's now 4 months old and is the cutest baby! I can see a resemblance can't you?
William has two brothers Samuel and Micheal aren't they the best in their matching outfits!
But the best part of the month was having Bishop Gary and Lesa Stevenson come to visit us for 1 1/2 days! It was like having alittle bit of home! He came to visit different building sites and the temple site! No they have not started the temple yet!
We went to look at a special meeting house that is a building that the Church rents. When we arrive there was a group of saints there at the church and Gary decided to talk to them. Here is Bishop Stevenson talking to them and President Cook interpreting for him. This was the best!!Gary and Lesa agreed to have a meeting with our missionaries. This was so great so they could witness that we have the best missionaries in the world! (And they sing the best too)!!!
Here is a little bit of Providence in the Congo-the Sneddons, the Stevensons, and the Cooks! And Lesa and I getting all caught up on family!
We then took them to the "beach" they were going to cross the Congo and visit Brazzaville and the missionaries over there. President Cook said we look like we are in jail!!haha
