Last week we got an email from the mission secretary, Sister Jackson, to tell us that Xander's return has been postponed by a few days. If you'll recall, a few weeks ago he mentioned that he wanted to stay a few more days so he could attend the sealing of a member that served in his mission with whom he is close. Instead of returning on 11/15 as previously scheduled, he'll be returning on 11/19.
Here's the letter from Sister Jackson:
Dear Brother and Sister Summers,
I had your son to dinner last night-we really love him! He’s been a great missionary. He asked that I send you his updated itinerary showing his arrival 4 days later than his previous itinerary due to him wanting to attend the sealing of Brother and Sister Mafi. Could you please also alert your Bishop and Stake President of this change?
Thanks in advance!
I have attached some pictures from our dinner last night. It was Elder Fa’amoe’s birthday but Elder Summers blew out the candles. Typical! Right? :)
