Event filled Saturday





















The weather in Utah has been pretty nice here. It's been in the 70-80s so I guess we might as well enjoy it while we can. This past Saturday Tim and I were able to join the Chinese ward to do temple work for the dead at the Provo Temple. It was really neat to be among so many Chinese members. Kind of felt like I was in Taiwan or Hong Kong. There were 30 of us in the group it was a pretty full session.




Afterwards we attended the Midautumn Festival sponsored by the Chinese Ward's Stake. I think that there were about 500 or more so people that attended this activity. It was neat that some of the members in the Chinese ward roleplayed the legends of the purpose behind midautumn festival. We were fed with authentic Panda express food. Silly huh? Well at least we did get moon cake though. It was good! Big too!
