Nice Mid Week Surprise from the Christensen's.

Kathleen
 
We got back from Naga two weeks ago. Chantz and Meisha didn't do a very good
job figuring out a place to meet. We stayed at a hotel 5 miles from the town
where he is serving and we spent Monday morning looking for him in the
computer shops and in the street market - to no avail. But we did run into a
number of missionaries who unsolicited talked about what a great missionary
Elder Davis is. When we left Naga, there was a missionary at the airport who
was returning to Utah County and he said very nice things about Elder Davis
as a leader and hard worker. We wish that we could have met him and sent
home pictures. It was obvious too in the time we spent with the Mission
President that he has a soft spot in his heart for Elder Davis.
 
My respect for all of the Philippines' missionaries went up after spending a
week there.  The country is gorgeous but the conditions are harsh with the
heat and the poverty.  The conditions are counter-balanced by the kindness
of the people. 
 
I am sure you are excited for June. It's a great thing to have them come
home after having done well. 
 
Best, 
 
Jeff & Chris
