February 7, 2016 - Sunday in Nauvoo

What a beautiful spring-like day we had today!  Snow is forecast for tomorrow, but today we were able to walk to Church and enjoy the fresh February air.  Today was our Fast and Testimony meeting at the Sacrament meeting.  We got there at the meeting about 7:20am, after stopping at the Visitors Center to drop off our lunch, and, to get the building ready for the meetings after the Sacrament Meeting.

We had a few visitors this morning at the Sacrament meeting.  There has been a good group of members from all over the United Sates staying over for the Sunday meetings.  We had some interesting testimonies given today.  It is always interesting to see how senior missionaries, with vast Church experience, interpret what "bearing a testimony" really is!  

After our meetings for Sunday school and a combined Priesthood/Relief Society meeting, mom and I reported for our duties at the Visitors Center.  We had the early shift from 11:00am until 2:00pm.  We had several visitors during our shift.  But, perhaps the best visitors were two workers from Ft. Madison who are here working on a major building project.  

That project is about to end, so they took the opportunity to come to Nauvoo to see what the city is all about.  Both were not members of the Church, but they both took some literature and each took a copy of the Book of Mormon.  And they indicated they would like to come and see us do the Rendezvous Play Thursday night!  We are looking forward to them coming back to see us!

We got home from the Visitors Center about 2:30pm this afternoon.  We enjoyed a marvelous walk home, and we were glad to be home!  We had our favorite breakfast for dinner meal this afternoon!  Then we decided to stay home tonight and enjoy a very peaceful and quiet evening together.  It doesn't get any better than this!  It has been a good Sabbath Day.
