We have had a wonderful week with Zone Conference with Elder and Sister Gibbons and President and Sister Hale. The Spirit was very strong and our emotions were high as we realized this was our last Zone Conference and the last time to be with such a large group of our missionaries. Later in the week, the Senior Couples got to spend some time with Elder and Sister Gibbons and they thanked us for our service and willingness to put other part of our life, such as family and missed baptisms and baby blessings, aside to serve the Lord and promised us some wonderful blessings for doing so. We also participated in an Office Meeting on Friday. We made two trips up to the north part of our mission to secure an apartment and to work on a serious apartment problem. On Sunday, we enjoyed being with the young adults. They are a lot of fun.
On Saturday, we took some time to celebrate our 44th wedding anniversary by going to an Orchid Society garden and green house. It was very impressive and we wanted to share just a few of the pictures we took. We also drove down the 1A1 highway along the beach areas and Elder Black went out on a large bridge over the port channel and watched 6 cruise shipped launched in less than one hour. It was quite a sight. We then went out to eat. This coming Friday we will start another round of apartment inspections. A new service mission couple, Elder and Sister Collins, will be going with us to be trained on apartment inspections. There home was flooded in Alabama and they moved to Florida to be close to some of their family and decided to serve a 1 year mission. We also have another couple, Elder and Sister Martin, who will be here just after we leave. We feel better now about leaving and are sure thing will keep progressing along.
