Dinner with the Battyes

May 22, 2020

We were invited to the home of 
Denise & John Battye with their son David.
We had roast, potatoes, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, and peas.
I think pumpkin and sweet potatoes are a staple
to eat with Australian Dinners!  
It such a surprise, but I think I'm getting used to it!
They are delicious!
For Dessert we had an Apple Crumble with whipped cream!
It was different than the Apple Crisp I make.
Delicious Also!
And then we talked.
We learned they had joined the church in their 20's.
She said she had always asked her pastor 
questions and they went unanswered.
Once she heard .
about the pre-existence 
some of her questions were answered 
and she wanted to be baptized 
after being taught by the missionaries
for two weeks!
Everyone we meet here are either converts themselves
or their parents were converts.
These people have great faith in
Heavenly Father and His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
We also found out that the Battyes have served 5 missions!




Question for the Grandkiddos ~  How many missions have the Battyes served?
