Day 112 - Wednesday, October 19, 2016

 This daughter of ours is celebrating another birthday today.  She is bright and beautiful.  Her middle name means "smile or sunshine".  It describes her very well.  She not only masterfully cares for 2 VERY active and wonderful children, but she gives piano lessons, is Young Women's President and she has done some pretty incredible mission training plans for us.  She is a minister in the truest most Christlike sense of the word. She is always looking out for the good of others.  Tomorrow is her birthday and we're pretty sure she'll reach out to serve more people than she receives birthday wishes.  Oh, and did I mention...she'll be having our 10th grandchild very, very soon.  Happy Birthday, Miss Chell Belle!  Oh how we love you!!!

Day 336 - Monday, May 29, 2017 When I look at this picture, the words that come to mind are "Consecrated Servants."  Each couple has a place in our hearts.  These leaders range from Area Presidency and wives to Area Medical Professionals to Mission Presidents and their companions.  We gather two times a year under the direction of the Area Presidency.  These seasoned servants come from all over the world...Philippines, Netherlands, Europe and America.  All come with singular purpose but bring a multiplicity of talents.  A quote by Joseph F. Smith nicely sums up our feelings about these splendid saints, "Gratitude is said to be the memory of the heart."  We will never forget them and how they served us.

Day 213 - Saturday, January 28, 2017 I sat in the hall with this cute sister in Bongabon.  We were waiting for the adult session to begin for the  District Conference.  It was fascinating to speak with her.  She has been working abroad for many, many years.  Her husband and two children remained in the Phililppines.  She is grateful to now live full-time in the Philippines again.
