We can't stay out of the rice fields.

Wednesday was memorable. When we picked up the missionaries they had three girls with them. Marissa is an RM and helps us a lot to find the members' homes. The other two were Mercy and Ly Ann, sixteen year old girls who wanted to help us. They are so sweet and pure and have such strong testimonies we could not deny them. We did split up so as not to overwhelm the members by seven coming at one time.

Elder Dalley ended up falling into another rice field. (We just can't seem to stay out of them). When I looked up it looked like he was tromping through the rice field on purpose, when in fact, he was just trying to get his balance after falling off a coconut tree bridge. The two young girls reached out to help him and he just ended up pulling them in with him. We had a great laugh. But they just got right in and took him to the tap and with brush and bucket of water cleaned up his shoes and pants without blinking.
