Sunday was very interesting. From December 10-January 9, it is considered "The Festive Time". (no mention of Christmas---ever). No one even says "Merry Christmas" as a greeting to friends or in a store.
Anyway, Sunday we went to our largest and strongest branch. When we arrived, the second counselor announced that he was the only member of the branch presidency that was in town. The entire Primary presidency was not in attendance and none of the RS presidency.
We brought a member to church with us...so there were 3 of us. Several more people came and 1 family that we rarely see was there. The member of the branch presidency that was in town had his wife and daughter as the speakers for the day so we did have a program.
After Sacrament meeting, one of the families went home. Then there were 4 women left. They asked one lady to teach Young Women (there was 1 Young woman there), they asked another lady to teach the 2 primary children (no manual or supplies) and they asked me to teach R.S. (there was one other sister in RS besides me). So that is how it went!
Good thing the church is true and can work anywhere in the world.
