Awesome Weekend

Janelle Burgess, Linda Frankie and Adelline Wiltshire completed one year of seminary and they received their certificate of completion at the seminary graduation held in Tobago of Sunday, August 16.

President Gamiette, West Indies Mission president presided at our branch conference that was held before the graduation. We had 39 people in attendance. We were delighted to hear from President and Sister Gamiette and feel of their dedication and love of the Lord. Elder and Sister Green also shared their testimonies. They are headed home to Texas next week. We met them when we served in the mission office in Trinidad.

President Gamiette addressed those in attendance at the graduation ceremony. Jorge Alvarado, area Seventy, presided at the meeting. He is a CES employee who is the mission coordinator over seminary and institute for the West Indies Mission. Brother Rappleye, CES employee over the area seminary and institute programs, was also in attendance.

Dad looks right at home with all those little kids on his lap waiting to see what he has up his sleeve, or in their ear, or whatever...(:

Congratulations to Janelle, Linda, and Adelline!

And I agree with Nicole, Grandpa does look right at home, doesn't he?
