| When we first arrive on mission I was asked to work with Derrick who is over the facilities of the church. We picked out a color of paint to paint the outside of the building. I suggested that two large pots with trees would add to the the overall look of the building. Elder Henderson and I found the pots on our way to Hermanus. I talking to Derrick I mentioned that we certainly could use some new carpet in the office. He added to his budget and thus in January we were able to make the change. Sister Wood had chosen a beautiful scarf which had been draped over the couch. Whenever anyone sat on the couch it became wrinkled. I wanted to put in on the wall as a hanging. I used the scarf as the inspiration for the orange chairs and the green ruffled curtain I sewed. I had been given a budget of R5000 for the chairs. As I shopped I found that all the chairs were about that much for just one chair. I found a place that would recover both of the chairs for a total of R3500. I was very please. |

| The new carpet is wonderful. At President Wood's request we all take our shoes off now, but it is a pleasure to the feet to walk on our plush new carpet. This picture above is part of our kitchen. |
