June

There is not a lot of variation to our days on the Square as far as our assignments. Our venues change with each transfer and, of course, each new day brings new people, new challenges, new questions, new encounters. The months continue to pass far too quickly. We are amazed with the visitors who come from around the world. Most with great respect; some with a real desire to learn, some with absolutely NO interest whatsoever, some anti's, and our role is to invite, and then to reinvite and then it may be to reinvite again. Sometimes that is a real challenge.

This is at a dinner with some missionary friends and Wayne's second cousin. He had not seen his cousin for 45 years, so it was a fun reunion.

Brett and Tiffany were in charge of our family reunion this year. Since we couldn't go home, they planned the reunion here in Salt Lake. This was part of the family swimming on Friday while we had to work.

On Saturday, we toured Welfare Square
