October 20, 2007 Recital Day
What I really love about my mission is teaching members to play the piano! I have always loved teaching music and this is such a joy to see and hear them learn to play the hymns and to then play for their sacrament meetings and the baptisms. On Saturday the 20th, Elder Dow, who also teaches some members in the Magoanine branch, and I held a recital for our students so that they could play for each other. Some are just beginning and others are playing the simplified hymns with two hands, but all are working hard and practicing to learn the skills needed to succeed. Some were unable to attend because of work, school or other obligations but we had a great time and all those who participated earned a certificate of acheivement and participation. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

mom, i loved these pictures! when people ask how you're doing i tell them great and that you've picked up right where you left off. whether it's teaching music here or in africa, i think that'do! oh and btw, sister wisdom says hi. she's in my ward.
woops, meant to say, that's what you're destined to do. not sure what happened. and i don't even have one of the kids climbing all over me pushing every key in sight to blame!
I love your pictures, Mom! Like Amy said, teaching music is such an integral part of who you are. You are such an amazing woman! We miss you here, but you are doing so much good where you are. You are blessing their lives in a way that will last long after you return home. :-)
