Blessing and FHE

This evening the missionaries got a call from the Trece sisters that there was a 3 day old baby in the hospital in critical condition and needed a blessing.They couldn't get a hold of anyone in their branch to do it so I gave the elders a ride there.When we arrived we found the room and the baby but there was another lady there not the mother.It seems a little bazaar but apparently if the mother is there with the baby they charge for both the baby and the mother so she asked a friend to stay with the baby so it wouldn't cost so much,The baby has acute pneumonia so was in pretty dire straits. We gave the blessing but haven't yet heard how things turned out.After the blessing we went to a family home evening with the Armonia family. They are the member family who own the place where we live.It went well: I gave a lesson on family prayer and shared some experiences from our family with prayer. Then we played a game with them and then they fed us dinner.It was good and I think they enjoyed the evening.
