President and Sister Satterfield

Saturday before last President and Sister Satterfield took several hours out of their busy mission life to host a bar-b-que for the senior couples in our mission, plus Sister Peterson and I who are the only single sisters serving here. President and Sister S. have only nine short months remaining before they return home to Pocatello, Idaho and to five children, all of whom live within a few blocks of them. It has been a privilege to be at several zone conferences and see first hand the absolute love and devotion this wonderful couple has to those young missionaries in their charge. They lose sleep over them much as they would their own children.


Part of the festivities that afternoon included being part of a golf cart caravan (three) riding for an hour and a half the paths of Peachtree City. The city was designed by three Delta Air Line pilots and it is beautiful. The paths are wide enough for two golf carts to pass each other. You need a map to navigate the paths. Everyone drives golf carts to work, shopping, church, etc. If you drive by the highschool you will see golf carts, not cars filling the parking lots as kids do not need a license to drive a golf card so long as they stay on the paths. Pictured with is are Elder and Sister Gibson who are assigned to our Employment Center with us. They are delightful! Sister S. told us to wear jackets on the trail as it gets cool whizzing along....so I minded, but took off my jacket later on as the weather was especially nice. The paths were virtually deserted as there was an Air Show being held that afternoon, so you know where all the Delta people were!
