This Friday we will be taking two members of the Area Presidency to the Airport as they return to the states for their annual leave. This year’s annual leave will be different because Elder & Sister Cardon will not be returning. They are taking a new assignment in Salt Lake. In August Elder Dickson will be taking over as Africa West Area President and there will be a new 2nd Counselor – Elder Curtis. In recognition of this upcoming change, the Area Presidency went to dinner at Magellans, a very nice place. They invited the Director of Temporal Affairs, and us. In the picture from left to right are the Dunns, Dicksons, Powells, Cardons & Sitatis.
On the family front, we received news June 4th of a new grandson (our 21st). Crystal (our daughter) and Jerry were blessed with a baby boy whom they are naming Odin. He was 7 lbs 12 ozs and measured 20 inches. Below are pictures of our latest pride and joy. He’ll be walking before we see him, except for on skype!
Good thing area presidencies aren't like the Young Men presidency in our ward - Dad would have been called to fill the second councilor spot! We're going to see Odin next week for his blessing. Can't wait!
