We along with 6 other couples finished MOT today. It has been a full week of classes about the mission group that we are going with and what to expect on the missionary field. It was a stetching week for us.
To start with when you see a name tag in front of you that says Glen Erickson Missionary to Haiti Linda Erickson Missionary to Haiti. It suddenly seems real. We are ready to return to Haiti but on the practical side we do have several housekeeping duties to finish like who will live in our house, Who will support us, What are we going to keep and what are we going to sell. When will we be leaving again, and a few other things.
We are staying in Tuppelo Mississippi tonight "(Elvis Birth Place) We saw today where he bought his first guitar) We will be flying to Fort Lauderdale and will be there until Tuesday. Then home to Children and Grandchildren. We have alot to talk over before we get home.
We spent the week with the home office staff. They treated us to a wonderful week. We were able to talk with each of them. They presented what they would be doing for us in the office and talked with us about their time on the mission field.
Then they feed us well and had wonderful desserts for us to enjoy, So much for the weight that we had lost in Haiti.
I wondered what it would take to make it real to you two...if I had known that was all it took I would have made you name tags a LONG time ago! LOL. Glad you had a good time at training, can't wait to hear what you two decide about when you are going back again.
ReplyDeleteGlen, Here is a tribute to ELVIS! LOL
