Another fast trip home
We made another quick trip to the US last week, third time for Elder Biven, first time for me. A journey of 15,000 air miles.
This time Elder Biven didn’t come home with pneumonia because I was there to watch over him :). Lovingly.
A few wonderful tender mercies included departing Cape Verde with a Cape Verdean Sister headed to the MTC in Provo. Since we were going to Salt Lake we had most of the same flight segments. She did not speak much English, and had probably never flown, but she was courageous! Sister Fonseca, headed to the Vanuatu mission! We were able to help her get through customs and to her gate in Boston, where our paths diverged. Last I saw her she was in line for security in Boston, with passport and boarding passes in hand and a smile on her face. Wow. Sometimes I am still overwhelmed at the courage of our young missionaries. Here she is in Lisbon.
