| Our Senior Missionary group....(another groups arrived last week). |
The 2,500 young missionaries that were there treated us 100 Senior Missionaries like royalty. I met up with three former grade one students of mine...Robby Olsen, Tayt Low and Alex Schow. Lots of hugs shared. Great and terrific young men who will make awesome missionaries. Another wonderful young man from a former ward of ours was Jeff Redd. He is the cutest red head!
The whole experience was so uplifting and such a learning experience that words cannot begin to express our thoughts and feelings.

| Elder Tayt Low, cafeteria food is awesome!! |
The classes, taught by young return missionaries, on learning how to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ were more of a testimony building experience for both of US. We developed a deeper love for our Savior, his example and suffering and know we too can be better daily in our efforts to live the gospel and be a good example of what we stand for...a follower of our Savior.

Only with this heart warming knowledge can we truly be happy and find peace in this life. However, every day is a challenge and a learning curve. I hope our children and their families will always be active in the Gospel. Knowing where we came from, why we are here and where we are going is such a key in life. Knowing we are also being led by a true Prophet of God and his 12 disciples is such a comfort and patterned after the Savior and his 12 apostles. Truly, we are blessed in this knowledge. May our family be together forever...with no chair empty in the next life.
We made friends with several of the other Senior Missionaries that were in our classes. We hope to keep in contact with them.
Pictures at the MTC tells the story...in just a few years our grandsons will start their journeys to go on a mission. Two of the Senior Couples had grandsons at the MTC. It was so awesome to see them greet each other in the cafeteria and bond even closer.
We love our mission at CHURCH HEADQUARTERS in the TRANSLATION DIVISION!!
