INTERNATIONAL DAY OF SERVICE
September 12th was an International Day of Service. Our stake took on the project to paint a school, inside and out. It was quite far from the homes of our ward members and us. We took the train and then walked about 8 blocks. It was amazing! There were hundreds there to help and we were just the morning shift. A whole other group came in the afternoon. There were about 100 missionaries including seniors, young elders and sisters. Everyone had so much fun. President Wu, our Stake President worked alongside everyone else. Also, Terry and Linda Spallino worked all day. Brother Spallino is in charge of temporal affairs in the Area.
Everyone got in on the act and a lot of paint was spread!

Enos in the BM said he remembered 2 things that his father talked about, "eternal life and THE JOY OF THE SAINTS. I believe a mission is definitely about the joy of the saints and how wonderful to see that it is the important part of the gospel all over the world. Blessings to you for all you are doing.
