DEPARTING FIRESIDE- APRIL 8, 1012

EASTER WITH THE SEROTES

We had a very nice Easter. We began with church at 8:30. It is always wonderful to go church on Easter. A very favorite day to go to church- My favorite of all the holidays. It is wonderful to feel the spirit on Easter and be reminded of the incredible gifts of our Heavenly Father and Savior- both the Resurrection- Immortality and the Atonement- which allows us Eternal life with our Heavenly Father. I am so grateful for these blessings and my testimony of their reality.

We were invited by the Serote family in the Burke ward to have Easter dinner at their home.
Sister Serote is the daughter of Elder and Sister Doyle who work in the mission office. The Serotes are a really great family. Always friendly and warm and we have felt very loved by them in the ward.

THE GILLETTES ARRIVE

We have been blessed to have a new Senior Couple arrive. The Gillettes. President and I had fun going to lunch with them and getting to know them better. Excited to have them here.

OFFICE HELP- WHAT WOULD WE DO WITHOUT YOU?

We have a wonderful group of office help. Our Assistants and office elders and also the wonderful couples who keep everything running smoothly. Hope they know how much we appreciate all they do. They are the best. When they get home they can all become professional furniture movers while they finish school. They get lots of practice out here moving furniture from one apartment to another.

LAST DAY OF INSPECTIONS- WOODBRIDGE

OUR MISSIONARIES WERE INCREDIBLE FOR THIS APARTMENT INSPECTION.
WE SPENT 8 DAYS LOOKING AT LOVELY, SPOTLESS AND ORGANIZED APARTMENTS and WE COULD FEEL A WONDERFUL SPIRIT AS WE VISITED EACH OF PLACE.
What a joy to see young adults with these incredible traits. I hope all you mothers and fathers that are seeing this are as proud of them as I am. Way to go DC South.


This was our 8th and last day of inspections. We visited the Woodbridge Zone today. And just like the rest of the mission, they were awesome. Everyone has worked so hard to make their places look really great. What great missionarries. Thank you. Thank you.Stop 1- The Preserve
