Island 2nd Farewell

Today was our last Sunday with the branch. Dew left early and said he felt totally useless, no assignments, no tithing counting, no Home Teaching, just like a visitor. Then we had to speak in church, and luckily we took the whole time!

Tonight our HT group threw a going away party for us, and what a party it was. To begin they all had on grass skirts they had made out of the ever present plastic tying string that you see tied around everything here. Most were green, but there were a couple of white and even a blue. They made them this morning!!! They danced a hula and were they ever good. Then they sang two songs to us, and then made us dance. I am sure if they realized just how bad at dancing we were they would have skipped that part. Then they each told us something they had learned from Home Teaching. They are such wonderful women.

And as a closing song they all sang “Leaving on a Jet Plane”. What a teary way to send us off. And then we took a kazillion photo’s, what fun! And Angel Santos even made sure that little Raphael came today because it was our last time. We will certainly miss them all!

Wonderful Entertainment
