Ward farewell...

We were invited to come back to the church Monday evening for Family Home Evening and a good bye party for the Elders...so overwhelmed by the time and effort that was put into this "event"....
Jordan and his last room mates

In this picture you can see many things, we are in the chapel/cultural hall, you will notice the seats on the stand, they were completly full with members waiting to bear their testimonies on Sunday, they had to have deacons block the stairs to keep others from coming up so that they could stay on the meeting schedule.
Notice no piano, just a keyboard and CD player, this is also the room where gospel doctrine was taught for Sunday School. The Sister behind me had us for dinner Sunday and her family is so great, very humble people...
The woman in stripes behind Jordan had a missionary out and told me in broken Spanish how much she loves Jordan, they all did
we were told we may have refreshments, buy the time it was all set up, it was a pot luck dinner, all were so generous and gracious.
This group did some spanish dancing and we were told that the taller young lady is Catholic and loves to perform with the bishops boys...
Bishop and his wife, wonderful people!
Jordan and the girls....a few of the sang solos that night, amazing voices...



We went to his house for dinner Sunday, what a spit fire little man, he asked Ross what he thought about Americas immigration laws :)



Bishop's family of boys and their friend
Amazing night, had no idea what to expect and left in tears...
