Linda and Carl Tenney: A day to remember always

September 11 is a very big day in New York City. This year we marked the 13th anniversary of the attack on the Twin Towers. The names of the nearly 3000 victims were read by family members again. At night powerful searchlights beamed into the night sky to mark the place with the twin towers once stood.

This was the view from our apartment. You can see the tallest building which is one World Trade Center and the beam of light to the left.

The 911 Memorial Museum is now open to the public. We were able to Tour it earlier this month.

Remnants of the old twin towers are housed in the museum.

The demolished fire engine is symbolic of the more than 200 firefighters who lost their lives that day.

New Yorkers and fellow Americans should never forget that day. It was in most vicious attack on our American soil.

During the past two weeks a series of mega zone meetings were held throughout the mission. Along with Pres. and Sr. Calderwood, Sister Tenney and I served lunch to 70 missionaries in the three zones in the Brooklyn Stake on September 3. We are the only senior couple in the Brooklyn Stake.

Present Calderwood gave an excellent training session teaching missionaries how to be effective and to keep the Spirit.

Our Bushwick zone leaders also gave us excellent training as they taught us how to be fearlesslike a lion, using one of their many cute costumes.

Working with the young missionaries is it part of our mission we had not really anticipated before our mission. We really enjoy this part of the work.
