Hello

Dear family

Hope you have all had a Happy Thanksgiving. It is Friday here and we are going over to a friends house and have Thanksgiving. She is Australian ,but does a dinner for all the Americans .
We went to her house last year,so we know it will be fun. Sunday night we are having another dinner with some American friends and families.

Yesterday afternoon a young man came in to the office. He said he had ridden the bus up to our office. After talking for awhile he told me he has been a member for 3 years. He was converted in  England while he was going to school. After a year of school he went home to China. He lives in an area where there are no member anywhere. He has been there for 2 years. He just came to Melbourne to go to school and came to the nearest Chapel he could find. How great is that that we were hear. He told me where he is living and I called the missionaries in his area. One of the Elders is Chinese. I called Elder Dang and the two of them talked for quite awhile. They will meet with him Sunday at the ward. He had such a great smile when he left the office. As they say in Australia, "It's all good!"

The AP's are in the office right now trying to work on transfers. It is always so complicated. There are usually 60-80 missionaries involved with a transfer, missionaries going home and new missionaries coming in. As usual it is hard to say goodby. I have grown to love these valiant people.

Robbie, I am anxious for you to experience a mission. It will be the best!

I love you all and miss you
Love, Mom
