I don't know if all of them enjoyed this but a lot of them expressed how much they appreciated being able to stay in our home. We enjoyed listening to them tell their experiences and of the wonderful works of God. Never did we hear them complain about their experience. But, we did notice how tired some of them were and what a taxing thing it was to travel with children to several different places a week. But just as you said, we could always feel their burden and the love for the people.
One time I remember taking a missionary family to the lake in our city and having hamburgers and a picnic. They have always made sure that they let my parents know whenever they see them how much they enjoyed it.
