So we did have Thanksgiving dinner after all. We got a new elder the previous day and he was so excited about Thanksgiving dinner. But frankly, we hadn't thought of it. It is an American and Canadian holiday. The Lucians don't acknowledge it. So we had RS enrichment scheduled like normal and other missionary activities. But because the elder looked so disappointed, we decided at noon on Thanksgiving day to put a quick dinner together. I have never baked a turkey and today was not the day to learn. So we enjoyed a wonderful BBQ chicken dinner with real potatoes, stove top dressing, my grandmas cool whip and orange jello salad and banana and chocolate cream pie. Look at the happy elder now. His companion is from Guyana, Annetta our investigator, and it was her birthday, and an engaged YM and YW leader couple. It was a great meal. Then we ladies took off to learn about how to give massages. Well, that will be one thankgiving to remember.
