Called to Serve....



no, just called to dinner! We just fed the missionaries this evening and it reminded me of the feeling we had when we had our own missionaries in the field. We tried to sign up to feed the missionaries whenever the list came around while our Elders were serving in the hopes that like kindness would be shown to them. Now, when we have the Elders (or Sisters) for dinner, we just wax nostalgic about our missionary experiences - vicariously, of course!
These young folks in our area aren't likely to relate to raw hamburger, or ketchup and rice, or not eating because you paid for people to get married, or any number of other reasons why food wasn't as plentiful for our boys - but they have the same job to do.

So, here's to all the missionaries in our family - past, present, and future - you are awesome!!

They all look so young in those pictures! I can still remember Kevin's homecoming talk. It seems like yesterday...

I remember going to the airport to wait for Kevin to get off the plane. Man, time flies by too fast.

I like this blog. They all made handsome missionaries.

That is fun to see all of the Lambson missionaries. Yesterday Patrick was reminiscing about some of the great and not so great food he had on his mission. I am sure that your food would go under the great category.
