We held our MLC in the mission home this week. It is a little challenging to squeeze everyone in but worth the effort. We try to invite missionaries to our home as often as we can. Our kitchen has been recently remodelled so it is easier to make sure everyone is well fed. The missionaries love the spirit that they…

Their assignment was to work…
