Addendum -- weeks 8-9

Dear Friends,
  We thought we had done our last report from Durban, and we have.  But we need to do one more to end the saga for now.

Yesterday, Wednesday 8 April 2020, we drove the long trip home from Utah to Palo Alto.  We so appreciate our daughter Rachel and her husband Dave Dimmick letting us crash at their house for two weeks until we could come home.

We both seem to be healthy.  Now we are just unpacking.

This is a difficult time in the world.  But this weekend we think of an even more tragic time, that had a glorious result.

Tomorrow is Good Friday and Sunday is Easter.  This is the time of year when we reflect the most on our Savior Jesus Christ and his amazing sacrifice and atonement and resurrection for us.  We tend to focus on the glories of this time.  He was resurrected and we will be too!  And our families can be forever.

But tomorrow we would like to invite all of you to join us in another Fast Day.  We will all be praying together for the end of this pandemic, and that life can go back to normal.  And we can go back to South Africa!

And if you are missing attending a Messiah sing-along or concert this year, you can still enjoy it virtually.  The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square is presenting a virtual concert.  
Good Friday evening, 7 pm (MDT That's 6 pm here in  Calif.)  Join in and sing along!
