Our stewardship report in Salt Lake City...

On Friday, May 14, we gave our stewardship report for our Area Medical Advisor mission to the South America South Area.
It was for the Missionary Department of Health Services.
"Serving a mission together after retirement is the best kept secret in the Church," I started my section with.
Walt thanked all the specialists who are on call for the missionary health services committee whom he could call at any time and get help for any medical problem a missionary had.
He also reported that he received 4,000 calls during the 18 months--from mission presidents, the wives of the mission presidents, and often the mission president's wife had the missionary call him directly.
We took about 35 minutes with our power point presentation, which was 5 minutes under our allotted 40 minutes.
We were happy to not go over time, and happy to have it over.

I'm sure they were all so thankful for your service- and I loved hearing "Called to Serve" on your blog : )

Wow - 4,000 calls - that's a lot of phone time! I'm glad the report went so well :). And doubly glad to have you back!
