Back To Church

I got a phone call from the Bishop on Wednesday night. He had spoken to one of the other members about our car and had called to see if that was why we had not been to the chapel these past few weeks. It was so I told him so. He has agreed to help us. Initially he was going to pay for the car parts so that Mark and our neighbour could do it. Mark suggested that we pay for the parts ourself and ask the Bishop to help us with a food voucher. I mentioned this to the Bishop today and he said that was a good idea. So hopefully in the next day or two we will receive a voucher in the mail and I can then use my pay to get the kit and other things needed for the car.

We were also told that we needed to be at the Chapel this Sunday (today) whether the car was fixed or not. I talked to one of my Relief Society sisters, who I visit for visiting teaching, and she helped arrange a ride for us. So we went to Church today.

It was so good to be back there. I missed being able to chat with the sisters. Sometimes I crave more adult company. I know I have Mark at home to talk with but it's not the same as being able to talk to other women. It sure sucks not having girlfriends close by to talk with. There isn't much I can do about that for now so there is no use complaining. I know what I need to do to change it.

I did get to do my visiting teaching on Friday morning. So I did have the opportunity to chat with other women. It was nice to see the sisters. And sometimes it can be such fun as well as uplifting. I like getting to know them.

Anyway back to Church. Brodie got a calling today. He was asked if he wanted to be the Secretary for the Teachers Quorum. I knew all about it as I was asked if I thought Brodie would be interested and if I thought he would be capable of the extra responsibilities. I think it will do him some good.

I think that's good news to end the weekend. The possibility of having the car fixed by the end of the week and Brodie receiving a calling. It's all good!!!
