Thanksgiving 2014


 All over the Texas Lubbock Mission our missionaries looked for opportunities to show their gratitude by being of service in a multitude of ways. Zone Leaders Elder Layne and Elder Shaw organized a service project with the Salvation Army putting together Christmas boxes for the Lubbock North Zone. It was a super way to spend Thanksgiving morning. 
Elder Layne held the record for the highest tower of boxes. 
The whole group...after the work is done there may have been time for a little fun:)
Group push-ups!!

...and not to be outdone: the sisters also do push-ups!!!
....and no Thanksgiving is complete without a LIMBO. 
...and a lot of love...
And then ...decorating the mission home...inside...
...and outside:)
There's something 'wrong' with the 75* weather!!
The reward for hard work: turkey and ALL the trimmings!

Service around the Mission:)




Elder Banegas and Elder Hilton orchestrated and carried out a community-wide service project to clean up the over-grown cemetery.  Members of the church joined with all the other congregations in the town of Van Horn, Texas to make this a pretty place.




There is no project too big or too deep for Elders Basinger, Bahney, Backus, and Bladen.  The Roswell people are blessed to have these missionaries serving there!  We LOVE service!
