part 2 Portland Maine and Canada

Jim's love of Light house sent me searching for them all the time. Not sure which one this is

Our desire to attend church

whereever we travel led us to the oldest LDS church house in Portand ,maybe Maine,  It was ward conference and the spirit and love was strong, the congregation was very diverse and  there were 3 sets of missionaries with a strong sense of their success, We knew the family of one of the French missionaries from our mission in Geneva! As usual there were challenges to get to church, like a 10k race right were our uber driver was supposed to pick us us at the ships dock! but, LOVE was SPOKEN there.
