April 1, 2016, the day has come to say our final goodbye to Tonga. It was filled with final meetings and many mixed emotions. So excited to be heading home to see our family, but having a hard time leaving the people that have become our family here in Tonga. Following is some pictures of our last few days and our preparation to leave Tonga.
 |
| This is our crate all packed and ready to be shipped. |
 |
| We are saying good by to our crate, hope it makes it home soon! |
 |
| When we arrived at the airport, this sister was there from our Nakolo project. She is one of the prettiest Tongans we have seen. It was nice to be able to tell her goodbye! |
 |
| President and Sister Tupou came to see us off. We were all checked in, so they did not need to help us with anything. Elder Murdock is having a hard time wearing shoes and socks, and pants! |
 |
| This is part of the group that came to tell us good bye. The rest of the Seniors made it just as we were heading through the gate, so we were unable to get pictures with them. Our dear friends that we will miss terribly! |
 |
| This is our plane that we will be boarding. It is a Boeing 777. This is a first time for it to be here in Tonga, so we are on the maiden voyage making history for Tonga. |
 |
| The Seniors are up on the Observation Deck waving and yelling good bye, so this is our final good bye to them. |
 |
| GOOD BYE TO TONGA! Next stop New Zealand! |
"That friendship which intelligent beings would accept as sincere must arise from love, and that love grow out of virtue, which is as much a part of religion as light is a part of Jehovah."
