The Piers and the Christensens with Elder Subandriyo outside his home.

Mary and the street where Elder Subandriyo lives. Notice the width of the street – it is for motorcycles and pedestrians only. Also notice all the plants. The Indonesian people love plants and give them plenty of TLC.

Sisters Sadimin and Findlay with two young women investigators at Elder Subandriyo’s house for FHE. Sister Findlay has been out about 3 weeks and seem quite comfortable with the language. It is amazing how quickly the young missionaries develop enough vocabulary to communicate much of the time with the people.

Elder Subandriyo, his lovely wife Sister Stephie. They could represent the heart and soul of the Church in Indonesia and we have met many couples with the same testimonies and attitudes. Sister Christensen is a very funny lady – she also is addicted to Walls Magnum Ice Cream bars. I do not know what she is going to do when she gets back to the states in a couple of months and can not find any. We have truly enjoyed our acquaintance with the Subandriyos and the Christensens. We have shared an special experience over the last 14 plus months.

This is the Walkers. They are the Country Humanitarian Directors for Indonesia. They are wonderful folks. Within two weeks of landing in Indonesia, they found themselves on Sumatra arranging aid to the earthquake victims. They have already done yeoman service here and they have another year to go. They are also very good at eating Chinese food.
