In September and October of 2017, Sister Kay Cannon & I served as temporary workers in the mission office and were privileged to attend Sunday meetings in several Metro Detroit cities. We were not yet assigned to a ward (congregation) in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
On September 3rd, our first Sunday in Michigan, a dear senior missionary couple took us to the Dearborn Ward by a Ford plant and introduced us to members who welcomed us with open arms. After three hours of church, the four of us went to Belle Isle Park to enjoy a picnic among Michigander families who were barbecuing and having a great time on the island. We picked a spot with a grand view of Canada across the Detroit River — exactly what Sister Cannon needed.
