This also happened today–some of our dearest friends received their temple blessings.  This group traveled from Bamako to Accra, Ghana with Elder Parsons who took our place with his wife after we left.

Biggo and Valerie were endowed and their beautiful family was sealed.  And Sanvee Kodjovi was sealed to Emeline (below, far left and far right).

Nourou and Kariadiatou Sidibe and their little girls missed receiving their visas by 24 hours so they couldn’t join these others.  Here is a picture of them at the temple the last week in January,

Nothing warms my heart more than seeing these friends in this place!
