Dinner was served at about 6:30. We had grilled tri-tip, roasted golden potatoes, candied carrots, steamed green beans, a nice salad and hot apple crisp with ice cream for dessert.Then everyone enjoyed some yard games and visiting.And then we gathered for a final testimony meeting.Afterwards, we reviewed the departure packets. Each missionary gets a letter from us, a CD with all of their letters to and from Pres Lewis, maps of all of their areas, lists of all of their companions, a pin or pendant with the mission logo, and their flight information for the morning.We marked the Wall of Honor, with everyone’s height, name and departure date:
Then all the luggage was loaded up for the early morning departure, and parked safely in the garage.And then the fun continued . . .
