DEPARTING MISSIONARIES LAST EVENING

May 25, 2012 this wonderful group of departing missionaries is at the mission home for the last time 

These evenings are wonderful, but keep getting harder.  They pull at my heart strings. 

This group includes Elders Bramwell, Dastrup, Church, Sherwani, Hiatt, Hanna, Bodily, Jensen, and 

Peterson, Elders and Sisters Doyle and Heller, and Sisters Holt, Ganbaatar, Dezzeo, and Sorensen. 

We arrive at the mission home and the 2 wonderful office couples have come and gotten 

things ready.  What would I do without them? 

We start with the Last supper. 

We had Ribs, (it's the tradition), chessey potatoes, corn, salad, watermelon, rolls, and strawberry shortcake.  

Elder Sherwani's famiy has come to share dinner with us.  

After dinner, everyone is excused except the missionaries and President and I. 

We have the most wonderful meeting. 

Final words, testimonies, thoughts,  A very special time for us.

Then, since they are too hyper to sleep.  Excited for what lies ahead... 

It's off the the bowling alley.
