Just 18 short years ago I was in the process of deciding to go on a mission.  I am so glad I did!  I have enjoyed turning my mission memories digital.

Cana (sugar cane)

I pray that our voices, memories of love and service may always be in the air as the burning cana. 
That the nostalgia may enter in and stir us to a sweet remembrance of our Lord, and His just ways.
That armed with more courage, hope, strength, determination and love we may overcome and follow the footsteps of happiness. 
That with privilege the Lord will grant His blessings.
