Visit to Esperance

We had a wonderful visit with the Australia Perth Mission Group down in  the far southeastern corner of the Australia Perth Mission.  We enjoyed a fun evening together and shared a delicious meal prepared by Sister Barr.  It is always a joy to be with the Saints of this special group.  They love each other and take good care of one another as well.  They are special people!  We love them!!!  Esperance is a town tucked away and surrounded on one side by the Southern Ocean, and rolling fertile farm land on the other side.  It is a beautiful, secluded area of Heavenly Father's creations!!!!

Here are a few pictures we took on our way back to the airport:





Some amazing trees along the side of the road:



Beautiful Bark!!!

  A highlight of this weekend's visit was that the grandmother of one of the great Elders of our mission came and joined with us for the Saturday social as well as for our Sunday meetings!  We were able to present her with a copy of the Book of Mormon, which her grandson lovingly inscribed with his own testimony, as well as a picture of him and his companion.  President Fife added her name to the Esperance Group roster!  We are so happy to know this beautiful, sweet Sister!  




Note:  I wrote up some of the highlights of last weeks Zone Conferences, however, they (along with a few more pics)  are somehow lost in cyberspace!  Look for these in next week's post!  Sorry!
