Homeward Bound Departures October 6-7, 2015

"If you want to know the Lord, go to work for Him."



Over the days of October 6-7, and again on October 9th, we said farewell to 12 Elders and a selfless Senior Couple.  We are so deeply grateful for their service, for all they have learned and given, and for their love of the Lord and this Philippines Cauayan Mission.
God be with you 'til we meet again!

Tuesday morning and the
gathering begins.  There is
luggage to be weighed,
finances to settle, itineraries 
to go over, a last special
interview with President, 
and friendships to celebrate.






A couple of hours of
loving counsel from

Wednesday Morning  October 7th, 8:30 AM
We're so thankful that you are Philippine Cauayan Returned Missionaries!


Two days later saw the departure of Elder and Sister Honeycutt, as well as Elder Loto'aniu
whose flight home couldn't be arranged until Friday.  

We are so grateful for the Honeycutts--for their dedicated service and love.  They actually extended 6 weeks so they could train Elder and Sister Armstrong as the new finance and office Senior Couple.  The Honeycutts brought laughter, testimony, unselfishness, and joy to this missionary journey, and all that had the chance to associate with them will be forever blessed.  Well done, thou good and faithful servants!




"Dedicated missionary service returns a dividend of eternal joy 
which extends throughout 
mortality and into eternity."
