This is the last blog of paulandkaylynnmission.  For the last 22 1/2 months we have published our mission happenings from Omaha Nebraska now we have completed the mission so this will be a recap of the last full week of the mission and then our return and homecoming. We started our last week by serving in the Pantry for the last time.This was Thanksgiving week and handing out food was a pleasure. They had received a truck load from the Bishop's Storehouse in Omaha, the people working gave us so many thanks and comments of appreciation for the donation and also for the donation of money received from the Church Monday Elder White closed the Pioneer Cemetery for the Last time.

This was a great week. We started out with Veterans Day and ended with a  great Sunday. It was amazing with the Missionary session at the Temple in-between. Monday was Veterans day and we were able to attend a Veterans Day Luncheon held at the Woodbridge Living Center. We were fed a great lunch and they honored all veterans in the Apartments, there were 22 of them.  One of the Veterans was a man named Bob who was 100 years old and had served in WWII. It was a fun get together.  Wednesday was a special day when we were able to attend the Monthly Missionary temple session, this was our last session with just the missionaries who were in the Papillion Zone and those Missionaries going home this month.

They even went to visit the Mormon Trail Center. We are getting ready to go home and are finding time is short for...

This week started with our day to serve at the Kountze Lutheran church Pantry.  We have served 4 times there at the Monday food bank, either handing out goods or being a greeter. You get a great feeling inside when you serve and help people. We had the opportunity to be trained by the Church Historian, Elder LeGrand Curtis. It is always great when one of the General Authorities is here to train us. Saturday morning we traveled to Kansas City Kansas. We had never been there and it was not far from our hotel. We headed back to Independence Visitors Center. A beautiful building and a wonderful visitors center.  We learned the history of the area. The Church of Christ has their temple across the street.  Kansas city Temple Independence Visitor Center Independence Visitor Center  Independence Visitors Center Leaving Independence we headed to Liberty Jail.
