Today was another awesome day. They seem to just get better and better.
Ted and June Sanborn, the A/G missionaries I stayed with last week, arrived at the retreat last night in time for the service. They had been teaching in the Bible School and could not get away until last night. They presented a marriage seminar for the missionaries this morning. Their session was wonderful. The missionaries laughed, cried, asked questions, and just really enjoyed the marriage seminar.
Just before lunch, I presented a session Missionaries and Sexual Purity. I was so glad Ted and June had just presented the marriage seminar. It was almost as if this session was a continuation of their session. Every session the whole week has just flowed. It is almost like each session builds upon the last one.
In the afternoon, we interviewed another missionary family. The word has gotten around among the missionaries that they are really able to say anything they want to say in the interview session. So the sessions have gotten longer and longer but better and better.
At 5:00, Ted, June, Fernanda, and I had to leave the retreat to return to Barquisimeto for the Bible School graduation banquet. It began at 7:30. Ted was the Padron or Godfather for the eleven missions graduates. Being chosen as a Padron is quite an honor. Congratulations Ted.
The banquet was great. As guests of honor, we were seated at a table right in front of the platform. There were probably 1000 people in attendance. We had a delicious meal, lots of special songs, and then the introduction of each graduation class with their Padrons.
