Asa was not able to have a formal "farewell" on Sunday because it was Fast Sunday but he was given the last 10 min to speak and bear his testimony. It was beautiful and he was very emotional and the spirit was very strong. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Later that night we had an open house/farewell party and it was great!
We had a couple of pillow cases laid out on the counter for people to sign and write any las words of wisdom (with sharpie). Asa then took the pillow cases to Brazil with him to use! What a great way to keep a little bit of home with him each day!
Thanks to everyone that came and said goodbye. It really meant a lot to Asa.
I like the pillow case idea! He sounds great!
