Welcoming 33 New Missionaries!
Yes, it's time again to welcome 33 new missionaries into the Mission. We are so excited to share in this mission experience with them, and know they will love the South and the beautiful people here.
No luggage left behind, the plane was early, so off we go to the Church for a real southern meal and some training. Then off to bed, early to rise, and TRANSPORT time!
With the incredibly hard work from ASSISTANTS, Zone Leaders, and Elder and Sister Mills, the caravan of truck, 15-passenger vans, trailers, and cars filled with bikes and dozens of pieces of luggage and missionaries is off to drop off and deliver everyone to their assigned areas. Transfer day brings a renewed excitement and enthusiasm around the mission, because we all love receiving new missionaries!
Glad to know they arrived safe and you are taking good care of them! Thx from Spokane, WA!
ReplyDeleteThanks President and Sister Smith for keeping up the blog! We feel like we are closer to our daughter (Sister Crandall, in Panama City) when we get to see pictures of her and the mission activities! I'm sure you have a lot to do, but we appreciate your diligence. God bless you and have a Thanksgiving filled with love!
