Friday was our last day at the mission home. By this time the food at the cafeteria has lost a lot of the appeal that it had the first day. We ate very little for breakfast and then went and put a couple of cards in some of our new friends post office boxes then reported to class at 8:00. We did more role playing but this time each mission couple used an inactive person in their family the opposite couple acted as the missionaries and tried to visit and learn about the situation. We then went back and made a plan or lesson to present to the less active family. It was a great learning opportunity. Then we switched roles and we role played a family we are acquainted with. We then took pictures of our district, went to lunch and I tried to take pictures of any Weber High students that I could round up. With less than an hour and a half left before we set for home, we had the blessing of finding an amazing sister missionary from Kenya. Sister Imedia was so excited to find that we were going to her area. She was emotional and I was too. She gave me a message for “the couple that she loves” The Broadbents. She also asked us to visit her family. Oh it was just wonderful and I feel so strongly that she was guided to our path. We then met as couple missionaries for a closing meeting where experiences and testimonies were shared.
We left at 3:30 and went to see Mom and Virg at Greenwood Estates. Mom is experiencing low sodium and kidney failure and was having a hard time being really alert. Deanna,Gary and Laura, Don and Karla were there also. It was an emotional goodbye for me.
Once we got home, some of the kids came by. It was quite calm as we un-packed and started some wash.
