A TIME OF GROWTH

 Just as the promise of new life is contained snuggly within tiny seeds lying dormant in the ground awaiting Spring’s signal to release all their beauty and purpose, there are seeds in each of us waiting the time and place to be nurtured and burst forth into new and purposeful growth.

Our Arrival & Welcome:  After arriving at our apartment we unloaded the contents of our car and went to the Mormon Battalion Historic Site for a welcome dinner and social. When we walked in the door, we were greeted by the missionaries smiling and singing the following song they had put together. After introductions and dinner we were given our special “Tour” by the STL’s (Sister Training Leaders, Sister Smedley and Sister Hernandez . And Stan, President Kauffman, was enlisted into the Mormon Battalion.  (Sister Logo-Vaelua replaced Sister Smedley as an STL.)

Welcome Song:
