Mission President's Seminar

It's always such a treat to meet with the other Mission Presidents and their wives and our Area Presidency and their wives. They fill our buckets to the brim with inspiring messages and challenge us to raise our missions to a new high. It's also fun to visit with other couples who are experiencing much of the same joys and trials that come from serving the Lord in this calling.

We loved our time in Manila but were anxious to get back to Cauayan and charge forward with all our mights for our last full month ahead.

 President with our friend Boycee, the manager of the MRC (Missionary Recovery Center) He helped us get to a dentist while we were there. We always love seeing Boycee when we're in Manila.

 The MRC brethren. Elder Jackson (the Area Medical Authority and every mission president's wife best friend!) Boycee and Elder Woods (he and his wife live at the MRC and help to run it. Sister Woods is a nurse)

 We stopped in at the PAO (Philippines Area Office). During a quick visit with Elder Ardern I couldn't help but take a picture out of his office. Can you imagine seeing that view all day long!

 We always love the sister's meeting. Our Area Presidency's wives fill it with useful information and fun interactions.

 Oh, how I love these sisters! We all share in the same work and feel such a sisterhood.

Sister Jackson is at the keyboard and Sister Blisner, (Naga Mission) who is in our batch--she and I have shared a lot during these past three years.

 Sister Nielson is at the microphone

 What beautiful women, inside and out. I totally love and respect these amazing women.
