Very small in number but large in spirit

I am always amazed how small this branch is. Yesterday both of the scheduled speakers were not there when it was time to start Sacrament meeting. The snow storm did hit and caused a few problems so I was asked to fill in for one of the speakers. It's funny but I do not even bat an eyelash anymore when called on at the spur of the moment. Ben keeps quotes and stories in his suit pocket for when we need them. He never requires them but I prefer having a crutch to lean on and then I can take it from there because the spirit is always there to help me out. Right after the Sacrament however both speakers walked in so we just sat back and enjoyed the meeting. Relief society was the smallest ever, only three of us. We were able to huddle around the little room heater and it was a terrific meeting. We do have some great people here in Leeuwarden and the spirit is always there in full bloom.
