The Transfer Home - April 2019

It is good that the new missionaries arrive and are matched

before we receive the outgoing missionaries

into our home.

After our dinner together we shared testimony love and advice.

I wish you could have heard them all.

Your son or daughter has grown up...

especially in the gospel.

Each one of them will be missed greatly.

We look forward to seeing them again

and following the direction and news of their lives.

We will forever care and

have high expectations for each.

This is a great group!

The "family mission table" is cranked back to it's normal size
and turned to it's normal place.
Darn normal.
We sure love these missionaries!
Ci vediamo!

New Missionaries! April 2019

Oh the excitement of New Missionaries!

Planning and preparations take place well in advance

of their scheduled arrival...

but...

Sometimes plan "B"

or plan "C"

must be put into action in place of the perfect

plan "A".

What IS always perfect

is being able to receive the fresh new faces

and energy that comes with our arriving missionaries.

It is exciting! Always!

...and they ready to Serve the Lord...

The airport pictures were taken by one of our missionaries.

I was home with dinner preparation 

as they were coming tired and hungry.

such a long journey for them but

the time to serve has arrived.

With the new option of calling home each week

please remember to help them 

keep focus 

and support them in every way possible

to become the missionary they are striving to be.

Thank you for all you have done thus far.

Thank you for sending them!
