Our grandson, Garrett, sent us a photo of Flat Garrett to visit us in Bogota.  We enjoyed showing him around Bogota.   As you can see, the lady selling the candy was not very happy with Garrett's visit. 

Our first Canadian missionary.

We have added Canada to our list of homes for our missionaries.   Elder Valle Heigh arrived to join our mission, and we are sure we  will enjoy working with him. 

Welcome to our new missionaries.

This was our first group to have the North Americans that attended the Bogota MTC.  We have from the back from left to right, Elders Andino, Perry, Lam, Westerhyde, Avila.  Second row, Elders Aviles, Kirby, Veil, Ortiz, and Sister Fernandez.  We always enjoy the enthusiasm of the new missionaries. 

Saying Good-bye to our next to the last group.

This was our last group to say good-bye from our house.   They ate Ajiaco and enjoyed the evening with laughs, good food, and lots of good memories.  We have from left to right Sister Vanegas, Elders Sossa, Nunez, Godoy, and Sister Ribera.  We wish them well.

A great missionary

Elder Wilburn has been one of our excellent missionaries.  He returned home for some health issues, but we hope to see him soon back working with us in the mission.
