Spending time with the Sister Missionaries

The sister's luncheon was held at the mission home. Here I am with Pres. and Sister Searle. Sister Ollerton is on the end, we spent time with her in Olmstead when she first arrived in the mission.
Outside on the deck, it was a beautiful day to be outside, too bad there wasn't enough room for everyone.
This is the other side of our table in the main dinning room at the mission home
This table is in the kitchen area of the house. It is a very nice big house that accommodates alot of missionaries when needed.
This is something you won't see when the elders come to the Mission home.

We have 12 sets of sister missionaries in our mission at this time. They are awesome young women. Sometimes they are able to touch the hearts of investigators in a different way than the Elders. They can put away a lot of food, It may just surprise you.

I can't tell from your blog if you and Brother Ellett are on a mission or on an extended vacation.. ha ha It looks like you are having the time of your lives!!
I hope those missionaries know how lucky they are to be serving with you two. I would give anything to have a missionary couple like you in Austin's mission.
He is doing well - can you believe it is has almost been a year for the both of yous. His hump day is coming up on November 7th.
Thank you for your service and dedication to spreading the gospel.
We miss you!
Take care.

I appreciate all you've done for Elder Jessen. I am concerned about his eye! Can you makes sure he gets it checked before he gets transferred which will probably be happening the end of this month. It keeps coming back and I don't want him to loose his site! You know how moms worry? He says Sister Searle calls him Elder Rojo everytime she sees him his eye is red! He loves you both and says he is realy going to miss the two of you!

Thanks for all you do,
Susan
