Today is Thanksgiving. Scott taught his Mission Prep class. I love watching him with these future missionaries. He pushes and pushes and pushes. They memorize and memorize and he still pushes.
The strange thing is that they love it--everyone of them.
The other thing they love is that the class has the same routine every week. After the devotional, they spend about 15 to 20 minutes reciting the scriptures they have learned in the past and the ones they were assigned in the last class. They always get lollies (hard tack candy). Scott then quickly teaches them the next concept they will be teaching as missionaries usually bearing his testimony along the way. They learn from him, and then they practice teaching each other. He then gives them an assignment to go home and teach the concept to their families before the next class; most teach the concept in Family Home Evening. To conclude the class Scott always shows a segment of "The District II."
Class is the same week after week, never varying and the students love it that way.
Spent the afternoon shopping for the food for the dance tomorrow. We am so proud of Ulai. He had his list ready to go, his mother had found the cheapest places to buy everything, and so our trip took way less time than we thought it would take. Maggie, and Mariah went with us. It was fun.
We are hoping that Onny will call before we go the our Thanksgiving dinner and say she is ready to go buy the decorations.
