P-Day

We went with the senior couple to Lime Cay.... a little island about a mile off Jamaica shore.  It was a fun day spent with wonderful people.  Tonight we are going to Senior couple Family Night.  We do this once a month at the Mission Home and it is always a delightful and spiritual experience.  As we were going around the group, we found that most of them we have connections with outside our mission.    One couple, the Schaefermeyers , have a daughter named Adrian.  She and Aimee were best friends in Florida.  When we figured that out we just laughed and laughed.  Another sister's father served with my father in Germany before the war.  Elder and Sister Flake and Elder and Sister Daniels, from Arizona, knew my mothers family from the same place.  It is amazing how small the world is.
As we are coming home in a few months, we want to begin putting in pleas for senior couples.  They desperately need mature people all over the world, (particularly right here in the Jamaica, Kingston) who have served in the church and understand how the wards and branches should run.  If you, or anyone you know, is ready and willing to come, our mission president is actively looking for couples to come.  He is an amazing man and the other senior couples you would work with are terrific.  Just think, no pushing snow for two winters.

We love you and are so thankful for your love and support.
