Goodbye to Pres. & Sis. Durrant


This is a picture of Pres. & Sis. Durrant & all the WAS Sisters, Sis. Putnam, Sis. Harris, Sis. Hulse, Sis. Smith, Me, Sis. McCarthy Sis. Clark, Sis. Campbell.  We were invited to the Mission Home for a "get acquainted" lunch and to say "goodbye" as they return home from their mission. They've been such amazing leaders for us missionaries.  They've been working with about 260 missionaries while we've been here!  That is no small order when you consider the amazing council they've continually given; including calling all of us on our birthdays, and anytime there were health or other problems to be dealt with.  We have four new sisters that just came in last week.  He told us our mission now has more WAC Sisters than any other mission. 


Michelle McMillan is a sweet, less active sister we've become friends with.  Her husband is a non-member.  She has two daughters that were active when they were teens, but have fallen away.  We love her!  She and her husband are very talented working with wood as a hobby, and she makes beautiful wooden pens.  She comes out to church and some of the Relief Society activities occasionally.  We're hopeful she'll be able to get her husband interested sometime so they can enjoy the blessings of the gospel together. 


Sis. Putnam & Sis. McCarthy are going to take our place when we leave in August.  We've been training them this past week.  They are very sweet missionary's.  It will be so nice to have them continue visiting some of the dear, sweet people we've loved and cared for here.  Sis. Putnam is from Randolph, UT which is near Bear Lake.  Sis. McCarthy is from San Diego, CA.
