Church Excursion

We were assigned to local Wards/Branches in an around London. My small group was assigned to the London North branch. Our journey was predicted to be 1 1/2hrs, well today, it took 2hrs both ways. We got to the little town without a hitch, but then didn't realize that the bus only came every so often instead of regularly and we just missed the bus because our group was going a little slow. We looked and saw that the next bus wasn't due till 10...the exact time church was to start (so we had 25 min till church started). Having the map on hand, we decided that walking would be quicker as the church building was only a 5 min bus ride (about a 10 min walk). Oh how wrong we were - 50 min later we arrived; just in time to take the sacrament. The branch members is AMAZING!!!!! I was asked to play the piano in Primary and help out with the teaching. By the end of the hour I was needed, I had beautiful little shadows clinging to me. Relief society was equally fantastic. I can't wait to be with them again next week. The trip home took 2hrs only because it was a Bank Holiday weekend and some of the lines were closed. NO GOOD!!! Next week we'll be more prepared and know where we're going.
