It was a beautiful but chilly day in Schooley's Mountain, NJ for Mission Day. We had a nice lunch of hamburgers, hot dogs, and of course bratwurst (we are a German mission, you know!) with all kind of salads and desserts.
This was followed by a program where all the missionaries gave a brief summary of what we did. Followed by a message by one of our Board Members.
As is tradition at the Mission Day a Brass Band played Hymms. Then we sat around in our mission groups and shared answered questions as people stopped by our displays.

My parents and the parents of my co-worker, Ned came for the day. I was very excited to introduce them to those with whom I work in Micronesia. (At least the ones here.) I wish the whole gang were here since my parents will probably not come to visit there. However it was a super day.
I think most of us are exhausted because I know I am and the house seems pretty quiet.

I'm sad I missed mission day...I grew up at the LM Headquarters (I'm Fritz Knapp's daughter). I definitely miss those days!
