We had a wonderful Couple’s Conference at Pumula Beach – the last time this group of couples will all be together. We shared experiences, testimonies and love. President Mann recorded the couples talking about their experiences and is going to put together a short recruitment DVD in hopes of encouraging other couples to come to South Africa on a mission.  There really is no way to share the feeling that is there when a group of couples gather together.
Perhaps it is all summed up in the simple statement by one of the sisters – “It is all true.†All I can add to that is ‘Amen.’
We drove the Vans back to the mission home, picked up the mail and headed home. Along the way we made a short stop at Ballito for a late lunch. Once home we unpacked the car and settled in the evening. However we got a call from a member from Enseleni who was at the Engwelezane hospital and had no way to get home. So we went and picked her up and took her to her boarding. We would have not thought anything about it during the day, but at night there are parts of the drive that is rather interesting. But since we knew where we were going we did not really worry but we were careful.
Great Job of catch-up – way too hard, but so worth it when finished! Our conference was so hard on the emotions knowing our missions are coming to an end.
