President's Dinner September 2015

On September 20, 2015, we had dinner with President and Sister Tupou.  This is always a wonderful dinner with all the Senior Missionaries.  It is also a goodbye dinner for Elder and Sister Wood and a hello dinner for Elder and Sister Deakin, and Elder and Sister Longi, they are from Tonga and will also be helping with audits of the Stakes and Wards.  Following are some pictures of the evening.
