The neighbors loaned us a record player for the week, and we borrowed an album of the Tabernacle Choir, The Lord’s Prayer, from Aldo to play during our meals for a few days. Certainly an inspiring back-drop for any occasion!
Rain again. This afternoon we took advantage of not being able to tract and grabbed a bus to Fernão Velho, a little town about 45 minutes out of Maceió, to check it out as a possibility as a working area. It is a peaceful village snuggled against the green hills and nestled beside the Mandaú Lake, charming in this beautiful setting. A textile mill seems to be the only attraction to the place. The inhabitants are very poor, and the lineage very high, making it useless as a present working area.
This evening, for the first time, we took time out because of further rain to go to the chapel and work on the records. All week I have tried to get Aldo’s help, but he has been very busy. Everything but the financial report I was able to take care of without his aid.
Elder Prisbrey is a good man. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with him. His loyal support and friendly companionship are greatly appreciated.
