Senior Night


A special night for senior missionaries was held at the mission home on Saturday,
July 1st, 2017.  Elder and Sister Farrer from Darwin and Elder and Sister Lea from
Alice Springs were skyped in .  We are still experiencing technical difficulties so
Its frustrating that they were not able to hear all that was being said but we continue
To make progress with the communication in this vast mission. 
We began the night with some review of what is happening all over the mission and 
For the need for the senior couples to be "watchmen on the tower" as the 110+ 
Missionaries are spread out all over South Australia. 
We had a couple of activites getting to know each other better.  We each told 3 true 
Things about ourselves and one untruth. Here President Gilligan tries to convince us he
Was once bitten by a snake on his leg. 
Elder and Sister Snell making us figure out who in the royal family they have 
Actually met???
It was so nice to just get to laugh and talk for an evening with valiant dedicated
People who are on a full time mission serving the Lord with one purpose. 
Elder and Sister Rohlfing never stop.  Even a fall where Sister Rohlfing received a
Bad gash in her forehead requiring several stitches and a fracture in her shoulder has 
Not slowed them down. Amazing!
Of course we had to have some finger foods.  I've said it before and I'll say it again,
This mission is filled with great chefs!
We are so thankful to serve with all of these wonderful couples.  We missed Sister
Sennett, Sister Barns, Sister Petree, Sister Flanders, Elder and Sister Farrer, and
Elder and Sister Lea. No matter where you are serving we love you, we pray for 
You and we are grateful for the sacred work you are doing to hasten the work in
The Australia Adelaide Mission.
