Bus, Lunch and POKENO"S!
Part of the temple experience is traveling on the bus, packing up lunches to eat around the visitors center----and stopping at POKENO'S for cheap, great ICE CREAM! It is famous in New Zealand and especially with members of the church going to and from the temple! I heard recently that New Zealand consumes more ice cream per capita than any other nation! This would be due to the fact that they make it hear and it is fabulous! They enjoyed every lick!
Bi-Annual Temple Trip
What a wonderful time to visit the temple! Most missionaries were able to participate unless they are serving far north or south of the temple and had to far to travel. It was a great time of year to go to The House of the Lord and feel the spirit and receive the much needed revelation!

The revolving door of a mission has a sad day---saying goodbye to wonderful missionaries who have served the Lord faithfully for 18 months and two years!
Elder's Cottman, McBroom, Hall, Steen, Betero and Sister Maake left with Elder's Atuai and Westphal leaving mid cycle, which means in 3 weeks!
