I am just documenting this as one of the activities we did. Last night we attended a Senior Missionary function that included a catered dinner from one of the good restaurants nearby. There were about 50 in attendance which also included the Quezon Mission President, his wife and two of his children that came with them. It was good to socialize with them all.
We then enjoyed a DVD that was sent to us on a program that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir which was in celebration of 100 years of broadcasting. It was wonderful...and my cousin Ryan Murphy who is the Assistant Choir Director for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir led the choir in several songs. Elder and I kept nudging each other when we saw Ryan lead the choir. He was awesome. It was beautiful and gave us chills. Nothing beats the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. And since they have performed all over the world, it is now known as the "World's Choir".
The choir performed not only hymns but folk songs and Broadway show tunes. It was awesome. Several performers who had performed in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concerts made a special appearance in the DVD expressing their joy in performing with the choir. We attended several Christmas concerts and hope to do that again when we return to the states. No performance is quite like that.
