We love new Missionaries!

Has it been six weeks already? It seems like we just had our transfers!

On Sunday afternoon, the elders who are going home gathered at the Mission Home for interviews, dinner and a devotional. I love these meetings because the missionaries are so excited to see each other and they are anxious to see loved ones again after serving so faithfully.

We had a long night, and our devotional didn't end till midnight,
but it was good to be together and share our testimonies.


We will miss these missionaries!



On Monday we received three new missionaries... Elder Colmenares and Elder Galan
from Mexico in the morning and Elder Leifson from Utah in the evening. Elder Leifson
actually shared a Book of Mormon with a family that he met on the plane. Way to go Elder!

After picking up the Mexican missionaries at the bus station, we went to the Capu
(bus station)where all the elders who are being transferred come to meet their new Zone Leaders and head out to their new areas. It was our first time going to the Capu and it was
a lot of fun to see all the missionaries. There was a lot of excitement in the air as they
met and headed out with their new companions.

On Tuesday morning, our new missionaries came to the Mission Home for a yummy
breakfast and training. After that, the new missionaries were introduced to their
new companions, we took some pictures and they left for their areas.
Good luck to our new trainers, Elder Nielsen, Elder Foster and Elder Mendez...
