Summer is gone.....

It's hard to believe summer is over. The YSA are returning from their holidays and enjoying the CFYA (centre for young adults) more than ever! They love hanging out and we love hanging out with them!!


Thomas and Peter put together a song to sing at the national convention....they were practicing for us and it was AMAZING! I guess they stole the show when they performed in Nottingham.




Miss Susan......






More performing.......








more hanging out......










One day we had Chris and Christy over for lunch and then took them to Carrick Fergus Castle. Chris is being taught by the missionaries at church. He works as a viking in Dublina so he always has a beard! He is a silversmith and they are fun to be around......







Saturday we had a BBQ with our dear friends Gill, Bill and Caragh. We love visiting with them and appreciate all they have done for us.








Last day of the Lisburn district. Elders Hawkins and Drewery from England. Sisters Wooley and Steele from America. We are now in the Bangor district.







We had a fun day helping Brother Wills from the church media department. He was filming Dave and Jordan, two of the YSA who just got married. They have a wonderful story and it was fun to be a part of the filming. Elder Holt held the microphone and I got to hold the reflecting disk....pretty important stuff! We also went to the centre and took pictures there.








Every day brings a new adventure in the land of leprechauns and rainbows! This is looking out our front window. Fall is in the air, the temperatures are dropping, the leaves are changing and the kids are back in uniforms! Two months left.....
