We have had the opportunity to get to know Rick and Sherry MacGregor who live right here in Nauvoo. Rick is the maintenance man for the Community of Christ church and takes care of their visitor's center and the historic sites. He attends our prayer meeting each morning at 7am.
In October they attended the farewell party for the Paxmans. They are from Canada and so is Rick so they were good friends. I asked Rick if they had a choir at in their congregation as I was trying to put together a choir for the Christmas Walk. He told me that they didn't but that Sherry loved to sing. I asked her and she became part of the choir. She and Sister Carlson both sang soprano and they struck up a friendship as well.
In the past two weeks we got together at the Carlsons (they have the largest space to get together) and had dinner together and played games. We've had such a wonderful time together. When Pat and I were first married, we used to do this on occasion and always had fun with the other couples. Since having children, we really haven't done this. What a great time to start doing it again! I look forward to many more night playing games and visiting with these great people!
