On to their assigned areas.....
Both new missionaries and a few transfers. It's always nice when some of the more experienced missionaries can travel with the new missionaries. It takes some of the anxiety out of going through immigration, customs and finding out where you need to be.

(It's always fun getting our outgoing missionaries together. Because of the logistics of our mission, many of them have never met before. It's great to hear them interact and share the experiences they have had in the various countries of our mission. As we have gone around our mission it has been a very tender thing to hear them each pray for each other. Recently President Baird has started some combined "Skype" district meetings on occasion so they can get to know one another. This is really helping to create more unity in our mission as well as putting faces to the people they are praying for. It is also proving to be very useful as they share experiences with each other about how the things they are learning in zone conferences are helping them in their missionary work. We love to hear how they are learning from each other. There is great power in teaching and testifying!) |
