It was great to be reunited with all of them at the airport and then to have a nice dinner afterwards with delicious food and even better conversation. We are thankful for the the time that we served in Costa Rica and will enjoy reflecting on the memories we made there. For now, we are enjoying opening the blinds and dusting off the furniture....we are truly home!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6956395664737980331.post-62410440937260492582011-10-21T05:25:00.000-07:002011-11-07T09:35:38.421-08:00Welcome Home Dinner.....We were swept away to Royce's house after the airport. It was great because we got to see Brian there (he <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">wasn't</span> able to go to the airport because of a project at his office). It was the perfect setting to sink our teeth into some great Honey Bears BBQ, something that we had really missed in Costa Rica, and get caught up with our children, grandchildren, and friends. <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

<br /><div>Neymar was named after a young Brazilian soccer player who is a favorite of many. He sure is a calm little baby and has been born into a family who is ready to surround him with love. <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5642698738258873922" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqXFqFDIEy6Zu3-66-_JqkpXVhUr9cMhqSFutVYxvPgiYmKflxAuYtBWWxqTJcxKiiCNUBY9iQhnq0GotamDe7B71HfPvDZmmHqzSZ1W7fVnqgW4dBfeQAtx2GTuwaNMaDGima4MG-eaV7/s400/RSCN1988.JPG" /></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

After months of meeting with them on a weekly, sometimes a daily basis, they seemed to have drifted away and lost sight of their goal to become members of the church. Through many trials, they reappeared at church a few weeks ago and wanted to be baptized. They received the discussions again and were baptized in June. They have been <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">extremely</span> active in the branch and have added to the spirit there. We are excited for them and their decisions to come closer to Christ.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
