Glorious Days!

Dearest Family, Friends, Brothers & Sisters...  LOVED ONES ALL!

Concerning these glorious days before His second coming, the Savior declared, 

"Wherefore, let us go to and labor with our might this last time, 

for behold the end draweth nigh, 

and this is for the last time that I shall prune my vineyard (Jacob 5:62)."  

Our Missionary District...  Trusty soldiers!

Baptism days are some of the most glorious days of all!  

This ocean baptism picture conveys a powerful image of the faith, courage, and love 

required to enter the waters of baptism and leave your old, familiar life behind!

Mercifully, the looming, dark wave gives way to expressions of pure joy!

A glorious day when older brother (baptized 2 weeks previous) baptizes younger brother!

Our own, personal glorious days have been bountiful!  What a privilege it has been to enter the homes of God's children, and bear testimony to the truthfulness of the Lord's plan of salvation...  These are times never to be forgotten.  We will continue to pray in faith for the spiritual welfare and happiness of many dear ones.

The blessings of a gospel life are 

the greatest blessings the Lord has to offer His children!

And He offers it freely to all.  

May the Lord bless you as we keep you in our hearts!  

We sign off in love until, God willing, we are able to serve another mission.  :)

Wrapping Up

Dearest Family and Friends,

We have just one week left on our mission.  As we conclude our service in Trinidad and the West Indies we wanted to share a few more pictures with you.

Many of the islands are host to turtle nesting this time of year.

Sea turtles can live up to 100 years!

Seminary and Institute students around the world take the Basic Doctrines Assessment each year.

We administered the test here in Barbados as well as many other locations throughout the mission.

This is Mamey Sopote fruit native to Trinidad & Tobago.  It looks funny and tastes like peaches.  We also get a lot of mangos this time of year.  Did you know there are over 300 varieties of mangos?

Our missionaries in Couva have been busy!

 This new convert, Cintra, has been a great asset to our ward.

 Here we are with Elder Gamiette, our S&I supervisor who was just sustained an Area Seventy.

We have enjoyed our service in the West Indies and have grown to love the people here dearly.  We appreciate each of you and the love and support you have expressed.  We will likely have one more post before we return to the USA next week.

All our love,

Elder & Sister Lindorf
