Soldiers & Senior Missionaries fellowship after Sacrament Mtg

Bro. Sanchez, Josh Pichardo, & Bro. Flores - provided sacrament & goodies

Everyone having a good time!!!

This title has taken on new meaning as yesterday, November 25th our Sabbath day began with a 8:30 am sacrament meeting, followed by a 10:20 am sacrament meeting with a ward council meeting included.  We then attended a 1:00 pm full block of meetings.  To keep up our strength, we managed a quick snack and off we went to a 7:00 pm sacrament meeting at the McGregor Chapel at Fort Bliss.  This has become one of our favorite Sunday activities as we get to meet the young soldiers from the National Guard that are sent to Fort Bliss for training prior to deployment to Afghanistan.  Several wards in the two stakes in El Paso take turns providing priesthood to administer the sacrament to these soldiers and speakers for the sacrament meeting as well as light refreshments.  We have been blessed to have two LDS Chaplains attend some of these meetings.  The Holy Ghost has always been present at these sacrament meetings.  We truly feel grateful to these young soldiers for their willingness to serve.  Then we think of the many other soldiers that are serving and have sacrificed all for us.  We've attached a couple of pictures of just one of these meetings.
