February 22, 2014

Sister Bly very kindly picked me up at home and took me to the storehouse and we had prayer with Sister Pilling, Elder and Sister Kearl, and Elder Goodsell shortly after that.

Since it was quiet, Sister Kearl and I took care of cleaning the floors early. We eventually did help some patrons and do some paperwork, but we also stocked a great deal and were proud of our work.

I also had to say goodbye to Sister Pilling today since she won't be at the storehouse next week for my last Saturday. It's been wonderful working with each other and we will miss each other dearly.

I arrived quite early today and the fresh food order arrived while I was the only one there, so after the driver and Nathan unloaded it, I ended up counting the order and sorting it a bit.

After prayer with the Gallups, Elder Goodsell, and Grandma Woolf, I did a fair amount of stocking to sort of build on what the shift on Tuesday night was able to do between orders.

This morning, we had group prayer and then I worked with Elder Goodsell (who is 19) on filling the out of town orders while everyone else worked together to do the same thing. After the out of town orders were filled, I helped Elder Gallup, Elder Goodsell, Elder Peterson, and Sister Peterson fill the meat portion of the out of town orders. Once that was all done, I helped stock shelves.

Sister Bly was kind enough to pick me up at home and take me to the storehouse and we had prayer with Elder Goodsell, Sister Pilling, and Elder and Sister Kearl shortly after we arrived.

Today, we all helped patrons and did the appropriate paperwork; I believe we stocked a bit as well.

I got a taxi from the college and the fresh food order was already there when I arrived, but Sister Woolf had work for me to do; she asked me to make addendums to the Bishop/Relief Society President phone number list so it was all up to date, which I did.

After group prayer, I cleaned the spice and icing bins and assisted with stocking shelves.

I also got a picture with Mona Petersen, the wonderful lady from the Field Office who trained me in a great deal of office duties when I first started my mission, since she wouldn't be there on my last day.



and this quote had been written on the board in the office by Sister Woolf and I felt so inspired by it that I took a picture of it.

 
 
and I do always love quotes from the prophets!

Sister Bly very kindly picked me up at home and brought me to the storehouse. After prayer with Sister Pilling, Elder Kearl, Sister Bly, and Elder Goodsell (Sister Kearl was in Calgary babysitting grandkids), it was very quiet and slow for a while, so we talked about various things.

Suddenly, in the middle of the morning, the storehouse became very busy and food literally flew off the shelves as we helped people to be able to get enough to eat. We were so busy that I ended up recruiting a Relief Society president, who had come to get an order for a patron, to help me gather, weigh, and bag bananas in the veggie prep room before putting them on the storehouse shelf.

We only had a little time to clean and stock at the end of the day, but it was such a nice day!

After prayer with Woolfs, Grandma Woolf, Elder Goodsell, Elder and Sister Peterson, and the volunteers, I cleaned a shelf, stocked the same shelf with food, and then helped Sister Woolf bag tomatoes, cabbages, and apples in the veggie prep room along with Grandma Woolf and Sister Peterson.
