missionary transfered

Elder Ricker, second from right bore his testimony in fast and testimony meeting as he was leaving the ward to go home. Elder was born with only one leg and the prosthesis was wearing out faster than he thought it would, so he was sent home to get a new leg. He will not be coming back. The others in this first photo are on the left, his companion, Elder Gamaz from Texas and on E.R.'s right is Chris Bowersox who has been inactive and these missionaries have been bringing him back to church.

I forgot to mention that the girl, Ana, is from Mexico who came here to Erie to be a Nanny. The family found out that she is LDS and fired her. So, she is currently staying with a member and is looking for another nanny job.She speaks Spanish, as does Gamaz so they have become good friends
Elder L and I took E.R. to the airport in Pittsburgh. The man on the left is Pres Summerhays, then his wife, then Elder Segura, ER. at the ticket counter

Again--he was waayyyy overweight so he had to pay

This is everyone Elder Segura, Pres and ER Sis Summerhays and Elder Bower (these two elders are assistants to the president
/We watched until he waved goodbye at the gate. Then on to Sacramento, California.
