Zion's Camp has gone from 11 missionaries to four. Zion's Camp is looking pretty bare. We have moved into the Taylor's home and it is so very nice. We are very blessed. It has a garage, two bedrooms, family room, dining room and living room and a basement with a laundry room and family room. In a really nice neighborhood with lots of families with young children. We are ready for visitors.
Friday after our last Temple Shift we all joined the Temple Presidency in the waiting room for our final goodbyes. We had a kneeling family prayer given by President Siebach. The missionaries then gave each member of the presidency a 14" marble statue of the first vision done by D. J. Bawden. The original is located in the Welcome Center at the Smith Farm. We have forged such wonderful friendships, it was hard to say goodbye. We and the Harmons are the lucky ones, we get to stay.It was a week of lasts, last time to be Wednesday night coordinators, last FHE, etc. For our last FHE the Presidency took us out to dinner at Bellims, an Italian restaurant. They told three wonderful stories about relationships.
A picture of the Sacred Grove. The colors are changing quickly and we may get a freeze tonight. We are so blessed to have a wonderful family and friends who support and love us. We love you all and especially our Heavenly Father. We are so grateful for His plan of happiness which will bring us back to live with Him. Have a great week.

MarJene, it's so great to keep up with family members on your blog. I, too, am grateful for the gospel and to be a part of such a fantastic family. I love reading about your mission---as I'm reading some historical fiction books regarding the church. I love the history. Have a great week, and congratulations on extending yoru mission.
