BUSY Saturday

We began our Saturday attending a Baptism for Dennis, in the Tally 1st Ward with Sister Krebs and Sister Milne. What a great way to begin a day!
We then helped our campus missionaries get set up for the trial run of our new "Finding Tool" on the FSU campus. Helping Seminole fans find out their heritage through Family Search. Who knew missionary work could be so much fun! We received some great referrals, and are looking forward to the next game.
And then we topped off the day as we headed west to Marianna for the Wards Annual Peanut Boil. Bishop Sims invited us to celebrate with the ward. Elder Taylor and Elder Farris were out harvesting in the afternoon, while Men in the ward boiled peanuts for several hours prior to the party. It was great fun to see Elders Taylor and Farris, Sisters McKenzie and King, Elder and Sister Thompson, Elder and Sister Griffen, and the wonderful Marianna Ward members. We found out that 2/3 of the peanuts grown and harvested for use in this country come from Marianna, and north into Alabama and Georgia. It's a great day to be a missionary in the Florida Tallahassee Mission!
