LAST INTERVIEWS & "CEREMONIES" July 2010

The missionaries come to the mission home a couple of days before they are leaving to have their final interview with Pres. Albright. While they are doing this, I visit with the other missionaries. We have food (or course) and they do three things: mark their favorite scripture in a special set for this, they give me their written story of one of their most memorable conversions, they hang their tie on the banister. It's like a right of passage. The final act signifying you are really leaving.

Elder G-C. Took another one because he had a halo around his head. He is an angel, but his real halo is white and shiny.
