Driving Missionaries

When we were in West Virginia, part of our task was to monitor the driving safety of the young missionaries. Missionaries who proved to be poor drivers were no longer allowed to drive. Customarily, the companion who had been been there the longest was the preferred driver. One of our brand new missionaries got to drive a mission vehicle from the very start, as he was assigned a trainer who was no longer allowed to drive. The missionaries all knew how seriously Roger took vehicle safety.

This particular missionary who drove from the first was known to us before his mission as he and his father had been our home teachers back home. The colors are poor in these pictures, but here is the Christmas card he sent to us:

"Merry Christmas! Happy Everything! - Elder Caleb (still driving) Spendlove
PS- this counts as my home teaching, right?"
