We rolled back the clocks today, so nightfall is settling even earlier over Nicosia. It's been a lovely Sunday. We're finally getting to know our fellow branch members better and realizing how much work there is for us to do to help the church grow and prosper here. The district president came and spoke to us, inviting all of us to come to district conference. He has the most lovely British accent, how could I decline? President told us that the Church has begun the search for property here in Nicosia to build a chapel; how cool is that?! But our little branch is a long way from being ready for such a structure. Our weekly numbers are few with even fewer priesthood holders. I don't think I have ever lived somewhere where the phrase, "Every member a missionary" was so applicable.
Spiritually fed, we hunkered down with pudding, hot chocolate, and some Scooby Doo. (Spoiler: they caught the monster/ghost!) Lots of cuddling and a blissful Sunday afternoon nap topped off a relatively perfect day. Ready to take on a new week, full of furniture painting, potential wall painting, and new friends.
