One time on the plane I met a lady named Kim. I had such a great conversation with her and shared a Book of Mormon with her. She was on her way to LA to do some shopping for her store in Trinidad. So on this trip I stopped by her store, Kreative Clothing, to check it out and hopefully see her. She wasn't there but I did get to meet her associate, Stephanie, and I bought a beautiful blouse. Hopefully next time I stop by Kim will be there. I have really met some wonderful people on planes!!! New friends everywhere we go!

Elder Hoard & Elder Porritt

This is one of my favorite people in Trinidad. Her name is Jaime and she works at the restaurant at the Marriott. She always takes such good care of us and we have made a real special connection!! She always gives me a big hug every time I come. She makes it feel like home away from home.

Elder Aydelotte and Elder Session
😂😂 Notice the "pained" faces. They are carrying my
bag in for zone conference. It's pretty heavy so they
were exaggerating how hard it was....it took two of them....lol.
It had books, a speaker, a small projector, my scriptures --
all the necessities of life...

This was such a wonderful Day!!! We got to have Zone conference (this is the Elders enjoying their little "snack" Sister Atkins prepared for them in the middle). Then after our Zone Conference we got to Enjoy an amazing American-style Thanksgiving Dinner prepared by Elder & Sister Williams (Sister Atkins helped too). They all spoil us!! This is the old mission home in Trinidad. It has not been sold yet so we like to hold our conferences there when we can. It just seems a little more "homey" then having it at the church. I think the Elders enjoy it.

Sister Williams, Sister Atkins, Sister Thackeray
(The Thackerays are the area Auditors so they travel, we were so
glad they were around to join us for Thanksgiving Dinner)

Elder Thackeray & Persident Baird

Elder Aydelotte said at home he is always telling his dad he wants the Turkey leg
and his dad always teases him and says no....they "fight" for it. So he
wanted me to take a picture to send to his dad to show that he
got the leg this year. 😏😂

Elder Porritt, Elder Griffeth, Elder Hoard
(Proudly wearing their "Blue" ties with Elder Sessions photo bombing with a "Red" tie in the back)

Sister Williams had matching ties made for the Christmas Performances
She has Put together a wonderful musical program for these Elders
to preform during the Christmas Season. Hopefully this will help
make them visible in a positive way and spread some "light" and "joy"
this Christmas time. What better way to share the message of our
Savior Jesus Christ than through music.
