Visitors From Around The World

Saturday, November 29, 2008


Elder Moon working on an eye machine. We followed the doctor to get to the clinic but knew we would have to come back on our own. We drew a map as we drove marking every landmark we could see hoping we would not get lost. That map will have to have a place in our scrap book as it served us well!


This is one of our former sister missionaries. Her fiance worked while she served her mission so they would have enough money to get married. It was fun to experience a Congolese wedding. The ceremony itself took place in the chapel and was very reverent with lots of talks and some music from the choir. Afterwards, everyone moved into the cultural hall where the bridesmaids came dancing in, and there was much merriment! As many of the guests greeted the bride and groom, there was alot of whistle blowing, chanting and singing.




This little flower girl was just precious! She looked like a mini bride.




Here's a group of our fantastic missionaries. Oh how we love them!

Hi Sister Moon, it's been so long, I hope you remember me. I'm Teresa, Linda's daughter. I get such a thrill from reading your blog and seeing how different other people live in this world. I bet you and Brother Moon are really making a difference out there. I enjoy your blog much.
