Oh what a week has passed! I always love the week of prayer and fasting at our church because it makes us stop and pause to focus completely on God and all of His goodness! Sunday we had a footwashing and communion service to break the fast and it was beautiful. The way that footwashing has been the last few years is by families. First the family members wash the head of the house's feet, showing their submission to the authority God has placed in their lives, and then the head of the house washes his family's feet, recognizing his responsibility to provide for, take care of, and lead them.
Rachel thought that the communion cups held medicine and so she kept saying that she was "sick". Then Rachel was so excited to be able to get her feet washed! It was hilarious! It was so cute when Robert decided to wash Josiah's feet too and Josiah was laughing the whole time he was prayed for (I think the water tickled him). When we went and sat back down Rachel looked at the couple sitting next to us and exclaimed "I got my feet washed!"
I will be so beside myself with joy when both Rachel and Josiah have the Holy Ghost and are taking communion with us!
