Translation

Actually, it is not for 1000 days. It is just that 3 years times 365 days plus June 27 through June 30, 2008 equals 1098 days, and that is way too cumbersome to convert into a blog headline. Futhermore, our release date will not be determined until May or June of 2011. Therefore, 1000 Days sounded just about right, more or less. Having noted all that, we are humbled and thrilled (Pres. Uchtdorf would refer to the feeling as "joyfully overwhelmed") about having this marvelous opportunity to serve in La Mision Mexico Veracruz.

Con amor,

On the July 23, 2010, the balance of the "extenders" gathered at the airport and sat on their bags waiting for their plane to Mexico City and then to the USA. They are Elders Moyar, Moeller, Larsen, Ricks, Brandt, Watts, Minetto, and Menet. These were some of the missionaries we met in the MTC the day they arrived and they night before we flew to Mexico. Others of them returned home about a month before. We had a spiritual bond with all of them and many unique and special experiences.


Then, they waved good-bye and got on the plane. Elder Menet got to Mexico City and his exit visa was not in order. It wasn't his fault, but he had to wait a couple of hours and fly home alone. Sheesh! But, they all made it safely.
