Last night we finished our site tours rather late and had to get to the Sunset on the Mississippi musical rehearsals. We were debating whether we had time to run home and get a bite to eat before going. We don't go out to eat here much (too small a town for good food), but we said why don't we go up town this time to eat, so we won't be late. We got up to a little place we hadn't been to before, thinking we would see if their sandwiches were any good. We parked the car on Mulholland St. just up from the Temple and as soon as we got out of the car, we were staring in the face of John Sanford, who I grew up with in San Bernardino Calif, and his wife, Uncle Kents (Ririe) wife MarVal's sister. What a surprise (and I don't think it was a "coincidence" that we decided to go to that spot at that particular time to do something we hardly ever do) to see them. They had just then arrived with a tour group of 80 people on a tour with Fun for Less tours.
We then found out that it was led by Michael Wilcox, who led us on our tour of the Holy Land. We looked up and there he was : Michael Wilcox himself. We all had a wonderful "reunion", short but sweet and got to our rehearsal just a little late,(but who cares about a musical rehearsal, anyway?). A few minutes earlier or later and we would have missed them all.
This type of thing is happening to us so often here, that I know that we are being led so many times by the Spirit of the Lord, to have little miracles like this happen, that we are almost expecting them.
What a wonderful Mission we are having!
