THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving fell during our interview days in New Orleans and West Bank so we decided to combine that two and have Thanksgiving with 50 or out missionaries and three of our senior couples. We had six Cajun Turkeys from Popeye's. 45 lbs of potatoes, candied yams, dressing, wonderful green been casserole, home made rolls and fruit salad. Not to mention homemade cranberry sauce and the best home made gravy you ever tasted (that's another miracle)It was all home made and it was all made by three women and their sweet husbands (minus president) he was interviewing. It was a hoot and the kitchen looked like a war zone when we got it all on the table but there was such a spirit of love and fellowship, and deep gratitude for the sacred cause that brought us all together it was a joy to there. We had the extra blessing of having Our youngest daughter Sarah, and her husband Glen, here from Utah to be with us which just made all the more special for us.
