Temple Recommends

These happy members came all the way from the Misiku Branch
to have recommends signed by President Broadbent while he
was here in Kitale.
These members are planning to go to the Johannesburg Temple
sometime this year.  It is 2000 miles away.  They are so happy.
President and Sister Broadbent are on the right.
