Preach My Gospel Missionaries "Both Ends of the Journey" Part 1 Those last steps--Departure Day

Departure Day is approached with some excitement, some anticipation and with a lot of amazement that this day is actually, really here.  Two years or eighteen months ago, it seemed like a long, long journey ahead.  But the days are so full, and they go by so fast, that all of a sudden the journey is at its end.   Now it's hard to believe that the mission is completed…yet will always be a part of who these young men and women are and will become.  Preach My Gospel missionaries are forever blessed by their love and service.
