Had a whole passel of young adults in class today.  As usual,  Scott's mission prep class was wonderful.  He just loves missionary work, and the kids can feel it.  He even has returned missionaries in his class.  I taught Pearl of Great of Price.  We have 37 students and some of them came from Nausori which is a long and expensive bus ride.  About ten minutes into the class the power went out.  Suva reminds me of Lehi when I was little.  If the wind blew the power went out.  If it rained the power went out.  It is the same here in Suva.  So here we are in a huge storm at 5:45 p.m.  We continues until we absolutely could not see.  Scott, wonderful man that he is, left and asked if we could move our class to the primary school/chapel which has a generator.  It was being used, but the guard, Abraham our friend, said he would open a classroom.  All of us grabbed our stuff, we locked the institute and trudged over to the primary school.  It was inconvenient, but really fun.  By the time I had finished the class at 7 o'clock, the power was back on.  All of the young adults came back to the institute for treats.  I love these kids!!!!!
