Don and Ada are headed on a mission to the Philippines. We will miss them. They entered the MTC yesterday, on February 26th. They got their call on Christmas day, so it has been a very short time to prepare. Besides everything you have to do to prepare to leave the country for 18 months, Don has had four surgeries in that short time and Ada also had some minor surgery. Don is a temple sealer, and during that time he also was called into service as a sealer in the St. George temple, serving every Saturday. It has been a very busy and challenging time for them. They had a scheduled Australian cruise planned during this time as well, but when they got the call, they canceled that. We go out to dinner with them a couple of times a month and Ken walks with Don and his other brother Mark once a week, usually on Friday mornings. We will miss that association for the next eighteen months but support them in their service. They will be wonderful missionaries.
After their setting apart as missionaries. |
