Fji- Day Four

Today we went to downtown Suva for a little shopping. Here is a picture of women who are weaving baskets to sell. They are lined up in booths working on their handicrafts. There were baskets, jewelry, bags, bowls and lots more.


Then we went to the Church Service Center. It was so nice to see other members of the church devoting their time and talents.

We were even blessed enough to meet the Area General Authority. He was such a wonderful man. You could feel his spirit as he spoke to us. My mom had told us about his conversion story on the way to the office. It was a great privilege to meet him in person.

I am so humbled that we were able to do a session at the temple while we were there. I was overwhelmed with my Heavenly Father's love for me. In the celestial room I literally wept as I felt the spirit remind me that I am a daughter of God. I was impressed to support and honor my husband. (When I returned home from Fiji, Kent told me he had been called to be the Elder's Chorum President of our ward. I know that I was prepared by Heavenly Father to know that I need to be supportive to my husband as he takes on this important calling).
