Guests at the Merchant Marine Academy


We love Institute!
We usually have Garrett and Josh (front row) and Brock (back row) at our Institute class on the campus of the US Merchant Marine Academy way out at the tip of Kings Point, NY. But Monday night was a special surprise. Stephanie, a new nanny living in the area, was a guest of one of the students, along with two fulltime missionaries - Elder Edwards and Elder Douglass.

It was a record number for a class there and we loved it! We had a wonderful time discussing several of Paul's Epistles in the New Testament with these great young people. There's nothing more rewarding than teaching:-)

Cute kids, all of them. I'm excited to start my own CES mission in a week, which is the beginning of the new school year in Peru, when I start teaching Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants. About 10 students have already signed up for each of my classes. As you said, it's exciting!

How fun! Sometimes I'm jealous of these kids and the experiences they are having. They're lucky to have you there.

Please invite your guests to visit us at Richmond Hill on Wednesdays! So glad you had a wonderful class.
