Our lesson tonight in Doctrines of the Gospel was on the Holy Ghost.  I used a talk by David A. Bednar which he gave when he was the president of Ricks College in 1999.  It made for a nice lesson.  He used a great object lesson in his talk and I wanted to use it in my lesson.  I called all over Suva for a tuning fork.  No one had any idea what a tuning fork even is.  RATS.  It would have made a wonderful object lesson.

Ate lunch with the Edwards.  They are from Kaysville and are here to teach seminary teachers.  They will spend three months at each church school in the Pacific which means three months in Fiji, three months in Kiribati, six months in Samoa and six in Tonga.  Better them than me.  Sounds exotic, but setting up a flat six times in 18 months is a real pain.

Learned that pianos here are not tuned with a fork, but are tuned with a pitch pipe???
