Behold Thy Sons and Daughters, Lord

One of the blessings of serving a mission is all the wonderful people we meet and have the opportunity to get to know.  In the short 6 weeks we have been here, we have met so many wonderful people who are already fast friends that I know we will remember always.  And we look forward to meeting many more friends to add to that list.
First, of course, are all the fabulous missionaries we have the privilege to associate and work with, from the Mission Presidency to the AP's, the Zone Leaders. District Leaders, to the Elders and Sisters.

Pres and Sis Donaldson

All Ireland Conference

Cork District

We have lovely neighbors in our little cul de sac neighborhood.

Cathriona and Sofie,
our lovely neighbors from across the way

We've made cookies with the neighbor girls, Leah and Lela.

And then there are our grand Tralee Branch members:

The Knight family, their friend Margaret and her nephew,
the Elders and us at the Park Run.

Every Sat we volunteer at the Community Park Run. The Knight family and their friend Margaret usually participate, along with the Elders.  We don't run.

Rukudzo, Sis Walker and Regina

I teach Seminary each Friday evening to Rukudzo, and her mom, Regina, usually sits in. We have a grand time!  Ru is a very lively, happy girl who loves to talk and laugh!

Dinner, FHE and games at the home of Regina, Ru, and Alice.
(sorry picture is so dark)

Monday nights we have dinner, FHE and games with Regina and family, joined by Agnieszka and the Elders.

The Knight children are so much fun!  They make up the majority of our Primary and provide most of the noise.  I am teaching Lauren piano lessons, hoping that she will eventually be the Branch pianist.  Evan and the Knight family were featured in the June 2016 Friend.  Go look them up. It's a great article!

There are many more we have met that we will introduce you to in our next blog about our Branch Halloween Party.

HASTE YE BACK!
