More New Missionaries!!

Yesterday we received fifteen new missionaries. There is always added excitement in the mission field with newly arriving missionaries. When we picked them up last night it was a fairly warm 60 degrees. This morning at transfers it was a miserable 30 degrees. Not a very good Florida weather welcome. It took us all a little off guard.

All loaded up to head to the Mission home for dinner and training. Hopefully they can keep their eyes open, after having been up since 2:30 a.m.

It's always fun to see how many of these missionaries know other missionaries in the mission when they arrive. This is our new Elder, Elder Smith with Elder Musgrave. They lived next door fifteen years ago and haven't seen each other since.

This is our new Sister, Sister Stephenson with Sister Wells. They are in the same stake back home in Idaho.

Only two new sisters in this group. But those two sisters bring our sister total to 100!

Elder Johnson received instruction on properly attaching his new bike to his car.

You can't tell, because the sun is shining through the tree's, but it is bitter cold with the wind and humidity!

At least they are getting into warm cars, instead of jumping on their new bikes to head out to their areas!
