"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

The song "I'll Be Home For Christmas" had a little more meaning this year than ever before

for these missionaries. On December 18th, we had a farewell dinner and testimony meeting for Elder Tipa, who left the next morning to go home to Samoa. On December 19th after their farewell dinner and a testimony meeting, Elder Down's and Elder Graff's parents picked them up.  After a night of very little sleep, we headed to the airport with Elders Gawrych and Fulbright.  We  wished them all a  Merry Christmas and told them good-bye as they finished their missions. What a great Christmas

gift for their families!
