Thanksgiving in the Mission

We attended three Thanksgiving Dinners this year!  Wow, and I only had to cook a turkey for one!  This was a year off for me.

November 16, 2012 We had Thanksgiving dinner at the Haarlem Ward.  Sister Stout and Sister Rigdon did a wonderful job on this Ward activity.  

Goed gedaan!

 The Zoetermeer Sister Missionaries, Sister Townsend and Sister Omozokpia brought two investigators to the Haarlem Ward Activity.

Following are pictures of the ward members and investigators that enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner prepared and served by 

Sister Stout and Sister Rigdon

On November 20, 2012 President and I had all our Senior Couples, 

Brother and Sister Bogart from Belgium and Hans and Reah Stok, who are our neighbors all came to our Thanksgiving Dinner in the Mission Home.

President had an item of business to take care of during the time we had together.  He had all the men sing a special song to the wives.  

I wish I had video taped this, "Ghost Chickens in the Sky" sung to the tune of "Ghost Riders in the Sky".  

 The wives couldn't believe President could get all these men to sing--but they did and we all enjoyed!

Thanksgiving Dinner  #3

On November 22, 2012 (The real Thanksgiving), we were invited to Amsterdam for Thanksgiving again.  

Thanks to the Single Young Adults of the Den Haag Stake and the DeLeeuw's, the Lyons, the Seiters, and the Pankratzs for a delicious dinner.
