Last night was haybot! That means awesome. Not sure I spelled it right, but that's how you say it.
Elder Strathearn and Elder Packer told us to visit a family in their home.
Merayke (they) have a very humble home. They live in a building where you just go down the walkway and there is just one door after another. It's hard to explain, but very humble. In very poor condition, etc. We went in and their wall is cover with family pictures, So the first thing I did was pull out the little book Mandi made of our family pictures. They loved it. I put it away. As soon as the wife come in, the husband asked if she could see the pictures.
The Elders had to translate everything for us. This is Brother Sani and Sister Rosianna. They go by their first names. We explained why were there and then asked about their jobs.
Bro Sani builds houses and he seems to always be busy. Sister Rosianna just had a new baby, but she weaves scarfs and little jackets. She can make about 20/month for about 20RM and she sells them to a middle man for 100RM. Not a bad profit, but we are wondering how we can cut out the middleman?????
Oh yes when we went in we sat on the floor and are given drinks and cookies. You dip your cookie in the orange water.
The Elders asked me if I was shocked about their home. I said not at all. What I saw was a loving family, living the gospel, and working together, Their son turns 8 and gets baptized on Saturday. It's true I really wasn't shocked. Yes its very humble. Very talented lady.
