We had a typical Sunday today but in the evening we had a MTC party with all the Missionaries that came out with us to Nauvoo. It was great to see them because we don't always get to service in the sites with the Missionaries that we came with. We see them around but it was fun to eat and talk with them again. Here are the pictures of most of them.
We became very good friends with these two couples they are so awesome!! To the left is Elder Blaine and Sister Marilyn Thornock and to the right is Elder Gary and Sister LaRee Phillippi. We go home around Oct. 8, 2014 which I think the Thornock's will leave about two weeks earlier than we do. The Phillippi's will go home on the 8th the same day we do.
These sisters are so wonderful and I have so enjoyed serving with them. Left to right- Sister Thornock, Sister Tuckett, Sister Murray, Sister McCann. Sister McCann when is done from her mission in less than a month she has another Missionary Call to England for one year. Isn't that the coolest..... She will be home for only one month when she leaves for England.... Doing the work for the Lord is so enjoying and rewarding...Whenever we have a party Sister McCann always does the decorations because she works at FM and has all the supplies.
To the left is Elder David and Sister Jerrine Beard. Sister Tucket- they life in Payson, Utah.
Sister Broadbent, and to the right is Sister Bogaski, Sister Bowen, Elder Bowen, and Sister Bennion...
Below Elder James Harris and Sister Carol Bogaski and Elder Robert Bogaski and Sister Jerrin Beard, and Elder Curtis and Sister Marilyn Broadbent. I worked all this spring and summer with Sister Bogaski in charge of gardening... I know it was she that got me into the gardening with her when they transplanted the flowers and planted the big pots...It was another high light of my mission... I love working with the dirt and flowers...
Sister Judee Murray helping getting the food ready, and Sister Cora Bowen is busy getting the trask container ready for the paper plates.... To the right Elder David and Sister Jerrine Beard, Elder Curtis and Sister Marilyn Broadbent, Elder Bogaski looking at the clock....
Elder and Sister Bennion and Sister and Elder Phillippi.....
Left Sister Thoronck and Sister Tuckett... Sister Tuckett and Sister Bowen.. The Bowen's are here in Nauvoo for 23 Months.
Left- Sister Judee Murray has never had any children but she is the best school teacher ever and she felt like they were her children.
To the right, Sister Faye Redd was in our District at the MTC... She was really hard to get to know at first but throughout her mission she learned to love and is a wonderful person. I think she has grown more than any person I know on this mission. She is here in Nauvoo for 23 Months. She loves to work with horses but they won't let her be a teamster. She has horses and a dog that she loves at home.
Elder Dennis and Sister Lawanna Thomas(left) and the Beard's and Thomas's are from the same ward isn't that neat they both get to be in Nauvoo on their missions... The Beards to the right were here last summer for 6 Months and then this year they came back for 18 months. They both are teamsters and the Thoma's went home because their 18 Months were over. They are both great missionaries and Elder Bread has really grown closer to the Lord but he does have a problem with his knees. He had knee surgery but it hurts worse then it did before so he is in a lot of pain. I pray that he will be able to finish this 18 Mission. He is the kindest man and hope since they moved him from stairs in a home that he will do better.
Left- Elder Dennis White and Sister Cheryl and Right- Sister Jane and Elder Marvin Tuckett...
After we had a wonderful dinner we told what we were going to do when we go home. We hope we can see these special Missionaries again because you bond with them so much. Sister White does the most beautiful handwork than I have ever seen. It is some kind of handwork that I don't know what she called it but is beautiful. We had a great night together.....
