This morning we attended a combined birthday celebration for the chaplain corp and JAG corp. The chaplains certainly do seem to appreciate us. I believe they must have some understanding of the work, the time and the effort we have put in, in our ministry here on Fort Gordon. We are always made to feel welcome; they always make an effort to greet us and give us a warm handshake. We love all these good people we have the opportunity to associate with.

We had a wonderful institute class this evening. One of the missionaries who served here on Fort Gordon, Elder Dixon, came back with his parents to visit us on his way home. It was real nice to see him again. Sister Kayla Westbrook was traveling with them, so they must have gone to pick her up; it would be real nice if a romance would start up between Elder Dixon and Kayla. Also in attendance was the Phillips and Amanda Tenney. Also Brother Edwards came out with Brother Mardanlou; we have not seen Brother Edwards for over 2 months. We have visited him in his Barracks, encouraged him to come out, but finally Brother Mardanlou was able to bring him out. We discussed the Celestial Kingdom and all its associated promises and blessings. It was a real  good evening.

Here are some photos from the birthday celebration this morning.
