We had Seminary and Mission business that took us to the lush island of Tobago two times over the past month! Tough duty, I know!
We stayed in a little hideaway that was delightful. It was well worth the hike to get UP to our little studio, to have such a beautiful view of the ocean from our balcony. Since a lot of our work is simply administering from our laptops, we spent a good portion of our time working from our gorgeous precipice.
We had inservice training for our seminary teachers one weekend and teacher training on the next visit. We no longer have a senior couple on this island (there just aren't enough seniors to go around), so we try to give as much support to the Branch as we can. We love these dear Branch members and it is only a 20 minute flight from Trinidad.
The next day our Sabbath drive to the church shows off the prolific foliage of the island.
Preparing for the Sacrament |
We have a group of 8 saints preparing to go to the temple. The cost of the trip is such a hardship, that many of the members can only go to the temple once in their lifetime. However, the Relief Society President is saving up to go to the temple a 2nd time. So she decided she wanted to attend our Temple Preparation class, too, to prepare spiritually for her special trip. Our temple is the Santo Domingo Temple in the Dominican Republic and they hold it very dear.
Monday is our Preparation Day, and we visit a beautiful beach that is just a short walk from our room. Such beauty!
A walk on the beach is just perfect...
Meanwhile, Elder Lindorf enjoys scrambling over the rocks and taking pictures!
His adoring subject... :) |
May the Lord bless you to see His Hand in your life every day!
All our fondest love,
