| Senior Couples meeting at Elder and Sister Wrights home. These are all of the Senior Couples in the Olongapo Philippines Mission. We could use 5 more Couples. Come join us. Elder and Sister White, Sister Gorringe, Sister Winters, Elder Winters, Sister Wright, Elder Wright, Elder Gorringe A carrabao is a water buffalo. I think there are wild ones and tame ones. In the Philippines, there are only tame ones. They are used to plow the rice fields and carry heavy loads in carts like this one. We had our meeting before we played. President Dahle had to leave early for an appointment and Sister Dahle didn't come. I think she was with a missionary in the hospital. |
