Shalom#14

What a fun Friday night everyone had at the Jerusalem Center celebrating Halloween.  We had students and faculty coming by our apartment throughout the day looking for any kind of props or clothing for their costumes.  We are the "resource" center for such important events at the Jerusalem Center!  We planned ahead and brought the "love bug" costume we had used when Bob was the Bishop of University 8th Ward (ASU singles ward) but the creativity really came out in the faculty and students. We were busy flitting around and casting our "spell" of love on some of the students and told them when they go back to school for winter semester the "spell" begins.  The following evening we gathered with the students of the Branch for a short meeting of announcements, singing, spiritual thought and were so surprised when they gave us the 
"grand prize" for our costumes.
