The Amazing Missionary Race

The Deacons planned a great joint activity for the youth this month.

It was a combination of The Amazing Race and a missionary prep night.

Once the youth were put in their companionships they raced to perform different activities they would need to do on their missions.  Such as...

 

polishing shoes

 

Checking the tire pressure on their bikes

 

If the tire pressure wasn't right they had to pump up the tires.

They also had to adjust the seat to the right height for them.

 

Graciously eat food they might not typically eat.

They had to eat vegemite on a cracker - they all handled it really well.

They also had to learn how to say they were representatives

of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

in another language and a few other things I can't remember now.

The kids all seemed to have a great time and learned something in the process.

 

Logan dug out Mike's nametags from when he was a

missionary and they wore them during the race.

 

Hard to believe Kaitlyn and Logan are so close to being missionaries!
