Last Sunday in Junction





After Church today the branch members surprised us with a farewell party!! They had brought chicken, rice and peas, pumpkin rice, salad and cucumbers for all to share...and they all come to church by taxi! the sister missionaries went out gathering food yesterday and today from the members that live way far away - we had 57 at church. It was great. The new branch president is a young missionary - Jamaican native - Elder Mcleod...really great young man. His companion Elder Romney is from Spokane WA - he's good also. They will do well here - a lot of the members know his family from Mandeville and he was raised in the church. His older brother is in the district presidency and his mother is the district Primary President. They members gave us a plaque - a van full of fun Jamaican's - reminded us of our old Green Bean Machine with all 12 of us in it. We are glad some more family are coming to visit so we can come back to Junction and share some more moments with these wonderful people.
