Bishop Stevenson's visit

On Tuesday July 30th we had a great visit with Bishop Stevenson at Daniel' office when he came to Santo Domingo. That was his first time there and loved to meet the members and a little more of where we lived and the office. He came to our apartment the day before and saw how we had things designating for Utah or the Philippines.

The meeting was held at 8:30 a.m. during the normal weekly devotional to extend Daniel his released as the DTA and extend the call to Guillermo Antivilo. In that meeting Daniel and I were able to speak. According to Daniel I took a little too much time but I honesty understood we could each take 20 minutes not 20 minutes between the two of us. I was hoping to leave my mark and my testimony which is the most important thing I posses.

As the office said goodbye to us, we were given many gifts, including a bust of Joseph Smith made by our Bishop Rotellini and a letter and plaque and jewelry for me and a shirt and hat for Daniel.  We were truly humbled by all the demonstrations of love and affection of so many people Daniel worked with for over five and a half years. It was time for us now to say goodbye and that was hard. The choir sang beautifully and the spirit in that meeting was very strong. A day in my life I will always remember.
