There will be no mission reunion in May, because of circumstances beyond our control. We will have to reschedule for the fall. Sorry!

The McConkies 27 Dec 2007
I did initiatories in the DC temple on December 21st and when the shift rotated, the sister assisting me was Sister McConkie. I recognized her immediately but I couldn't remember right away how I knew her. She sort of reminded me of my mom and so I assumed that she had been a DC temple worker for years and that I probably recognized her from the temple. Then I started picturing her husband and it came to me that she served in the office of the Canada Winnipeg mission. So, I asked if that was the case and she said it was. She and I chatted after we finished the proxy names and she told me that since CWM they have served a temple mission in Switzerland and now they are serving a temple mission here in Washington DC! We talked about areas where I served and she asked if I ever knew Elder Willardson. I sure did! Are you out there somewhere Elder Willardson? Sister McConkie remembers and loves you. :0)

That was a fun Christmas miracle for me and I thought I would share!

Future of Website 04 Dec 2007
Hi Everyone,


We have had 18,183 Visitors to the new website since we changed over in Feb 2006. We currently have 306 Alumni and over a hundred photos on our site. The main goal of this site when it started back in 1995, was to provide a way to link old friends together. Although we have these numbers we don’t see a lot of community. We think there’s a lot of this going on, but it’s not visible on the site. We would love to get a more dynamic site.

We are looking at ways to expand the site and may have to rent a new site so we can be more flexible about features we want to implement. If we do this we will need help from people for every aspect of the site. We will need people to write articles, design and layout and web programming. We will try to import the current database so people don’t have to resubmit info.

What features would you like to see implemented on the site?

Local news from the Mission?
News from the members in the area about the church there?
Forums?
Currently Serving Section?
Announcements and Reunions?
Organised reunions in Winnipeg/Regina/Sask?
Email Newsletters?
More Meetups?
Regional Meetups, i.e. Europe, East Coast, California, etc?
Should we add a paypal link to have people contribute to the web hosting or not?
Should we just create a new Facebook Group instead?
What other features should we implement?

Thanks for your Support,

Mendenhall Reunion 15 Oct 2007
For those of you who weren't able to make it, I just wanted to tell you about the reunion last Oct. 5th.

About 8-10 families came to the park in the afternoon (despite the rain). It was fun to see everyone. In the evening, there were about 50 or 60 adults. The Mendenhalls had a nice little program prepared: the senior missionaries shared some of their advice, and the Mendenhalls spoke, for about 10-15 minutes. Pres. Mendenhall especially encouraged us to enjoy the journey of life. Afterwards they passed out a bunch of wunderbars and we did a lot more visiting.

A Huge Thank You to Everyone who came! It was so nice to see familiar faces and to catch up on the last 10 years. The Mendenhalls send their love and encourage everyone to keep in contact with them.

Mendenhall Reunion 09 Oct 2007
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who came to the reunion on the 5th! It was absolutely fantastic to see everyone!

There was a light rain in the afternoon, but the kids didn't mind and neither did the adults. About 10 R.M.s and their families came to that one. In the evening there were 40 or 50 adults. The Mendenhalls and the Senior missionaries shared some thoughts with us, along with a few musical numbers, then a lot of visiting, a lot of pictures, a lot of food, and a lot of fun.

Wish everyone could have been there. Those who weren't were missed. The Mendenhalls hope that everyone will stay in touch. They love hearing from all of you. Until next time....

If anyone hasn't gotten their family picture to me for the Mendenhall's gift, there is still some time--I'd like to get AS MANY photos as possible and have it ready to give them in Oct. If you can't make it to the reunion in Oct, please make an "extra effort" to send me a photo. Thank you for your help in this, I know they'll appreciate it! Also, if you have any questions about the details of the reunion you can email me about that too.

Send to: cwm@bettwieser.org by Aug. 20th.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

President and Sister Layton's Farewell 01 Oct 2006
Just wanted to say how nice it was to see some of you last Sunday at President and Sister Layton's missionary farewell. They are leaving for Bangkok tomorrow and it was really neat to see some of the old Elders and Sisters as well as Senior missionaries in Centerville last week. The Layton's said that they would try and keep updates on this website while they are gone serving their mission.

Anyway, hope everyone is doing well.

Hi Fellow Missionaries 16 Aug 2006
I just talked to President Clove tonight, he seemed to be doing quite well, just working with his Boy's at the office, he told me that Sister Clove tripped over some chairs and fell, broke a few of her ribs, I hope she is ok. She is so special. Keep her in your prayers, ok. I was told that the reunion will be confrence weekend, and they have not gave information on where it is going to be yet, but they said they will inform us that has given them email addresses, and postal addresses. I talked to Adam T. Hailstone tonight also. He is well, just moved back from N. Carolina. He and his wife are doing well, just trying to move in, and UNPACK... They seem happy. As for me... I can not be happier. I am still single, but I am getting prepared to go to college this next January, in which I will study Criminal Justice, I have chose to get my Assoc. Degree before I consider getting married to anyone, so wish me luck on finding the right Girl this time.. I'm still seeing Ashley, but am not going to get serious with her right now. I hope to see many of you when I move down to Cedar City, and I hope to see many of you at the reunion. Well, got to go, please write to me when you can...
Your Fellow Servant

Update from President and Sister Layton 03 Aug 2006
Canada Winnipeg Mission Update from President and Sister Layton,

We have been home from our Mission to Canada for six years. It has been a busy time for us. Our children all had home improvement project waiting for their dad, so that has taken a lot of his time, and he has loved every minute of it.

We have had added ten new grandchildren and two great-grandchildren to our family tree, and these little ones have also kept us busy, but what a joy they are. We are glad however that they all have their own homes to go to after visiting with us.

When we returned home our Stake President called us to continue doing missionary work. He was starting a new program, calling senior couples in the stake to work with the less actives, to bring them back into activity
with the Temple endowment as the goal. This became a very exciting time for us. We were able to assist the spirit in bringing several families back to church and see them go to the Temple.

Three years ago Sister Layton was called to be the Relief Society President in our ward and this has taken most of her time and mine also. The phone has been ringing constantly and I make sure that she calls everyone back and gets to her meetings on time. I have helped with a lot of funerals and R.S. functions. Needless to say, she has loved every minute of it.

Now, what is next ? Yes, you have probably guessed it. We are going to leave our family again and travel to Bangkok, Thailand. No, we are not participating in the TV show, THE GREAT RACE. This time we are going to be proselyting missionaries. We are excited and also a bit nervous. We are leaving on Oct. 2nd for the MTC, and Oct. 9th for Thailand. We will be
speaking in our ward on Sept. 24th at 2:40 p.m. If any of you would like to come we certainly would love to see you there. The address is 100 South 300 East, Centerville. Our phone 801-295-2575 Cell 801-699-0205.

Many people, including two of our daughters, wonder why we want to serve again. This is easy to answer. We loved our mission to Canada. We think of it every day. When we returned home we knew we wanted to go again, but this time things were going to be different. We wanted to experience what our missionaries had experienced. The prophet has asked all able senior couples to serve, and we don’t have one excuse not to go. So here we are, getting ready to leave. We will return and report in 18 months.

Till we meet again, be happy, serve the Lord, keep the commandments,
and smile!!

Much love to all of you, Elder and Sister Layton
