TRIP TO GUYANA

In February we took a trip back to Guyana for two reasons:
1. We really wanted to visit all of our dear friends in Linden one more time before finishing our mission.
2. One of our very good friends called and asked me to do a wedding cake for here.
She was one of our faithful church attenders.
After months of waiting she finally received the document she needed in order to get married to the man she had been with for over 20 years.
She wanted that and needed that to happen in order for her to finally follow her four daughters into the waters of baptism.

Truman was given the honor of being the
Father of the Bride.

There I was having to put on a few final borders after the cake was transported in three pieces across town, over the river, over a rickety old bridge,
and over a red dirt road full of potholes,
no craters.

It just so happens that when we lived in Linden we traveled down Lover's Lane everyday to get to our apartment which was on the next street over.
We couldn't resist getting a picture on this last trip to Linden.
There were six missionaries serving in Linden when we were there. Three elders from the states, one elder from Guyana, and two sister missionaries also from Guyana.

In this picture, we are with the Ramdeholl family at their home in Anarika.
Bro. Ramdeholl is the one on the right who was severely injured in a logging accident back in June 2009.
After many, many months of laying in a hospital bed waiting for his hips, legs, and bladder to heal from various surgeries, he is home now and very active. He isn't able to go back to work yet but is getting stronger every day.
