The "Donut" Fireside

Friday night, March 7th, our missionaries in the Panduri building held a fireside on the Atonement. They first held three rotating classes to teach about the importance of Service and then about the Savior's great atoning sacrifice.

To make their point on the atonement, they brought everyone into a room and held up a pan of hot, freshly made donuts by Sora Larsen, Sora Betham and Elder Valentine. They then asked everyone if they would like to have a donut and as the member took a donut they told them that a price had to be paid. The person taking the donut then told Elder Mielke he had to do 10 push-ups to pay that price so the person could have his donut. By the time everyone had a donut Elder Mielke had struggled through 200 push-ups! (By the way, he is buff! He made it!) The point of the exercise was the willingness of the Savior to sacrifice and pay for our sins that we might have eternal life. It was a great evening and the spirit was very strong.

Our three chef's, in their cute little aprons, did a great job! However, I'm not sure if they ate more than they gave away! They were pretty darn good!

Sora Iulita opens wide for another chocolate donut....Yum!
