Our First Day of Training

We have three days of training in the Salt Lake Temple before heading to Hong Kong, and our first day has been wonderful and uplifting.  It is marvelous being instructed by Elder Richard and Sister Kathleen H. Walker.  They have had a great deal of experience doing the Lord's work, and have much wisdom to share.
We are among 15 other missionary couples headed for various temples throughout the world, some of which have served missions before.  One of the couples are the parents of a good friend of our daughter's.  Another will be serving in the same mission as my cousin and her husband in Hawaii. 
It is amazing how we have some kind of connection with a few of the other temple missionaries.
President Gordon B. Hinckley's son and daughter-in-law were kind enough to take this photo of us just outside of the temple at the end of our first day.
