3 September 2017  Farewell Dinner for Elder St. Mars.  He requested Taco Salad and it turned our great.  Below is Elder Wheelock, (AP) Elder St. Mars Elder Badoo (AP) and my good looking companion.  It was a really nice evening.  The Clawsons were able to join us later.  They traveled home from Bo. 

 Elder St.Mars was suppose to go home on the 4th of  September, but there was a problem with his flight and so he ended up going home on the 5th.  When I told him he was staying another day, he said, "Sweet".  He was a very good missionary and served faithfully to the end and then some.  He is also our last missionary to return home that came from another mission to help open Sierra Leone Freetown mission.  

This is the new group of missionaries we welcomed 5 September 2017 They are all from the US.  Several are from Utah and one is even from Orem. What a small world.
