HARD TO SAY GOODBYE--4 DEPARTING MISSIONARIES

On Sept 3, 2010, we sent 4 wonderful missionaries home after serving their very best for 18-24 months. We will miss these 4. They are: Sisters Hahn and Bagley and Elders Clinger and Larsen. In front of the mission home in the morning as we get ready to leave for the airport.

We give each departing missionary a book that contains info about the mission and memories and their weekly letters, a map, pictures, etc. We have a wonderful and special testimony meeting and feel so close to these missionaries as they share a departing testimony. It is just so beautiful. Then we hand out the books. Then after visiting for a while, it is time to bowl.
