Two great Hermanas

Again we loose!  We have to remember the excitement on the other side with those families that have been waiting to see their missionary, to compensate for the sadness that we feel when one of our missionaries leave.  It is really hard to wonder if you will be able to see these people that have become a part of your heart and your life again.  It is the promises of eternity that we hold on too and the sweet reunion that can be ours there.

We haven't had a group like this in a long time!

We LOVE getting missionaries and this week we got 11!!!  We are so grateful to have each and every one of them.  We haven't had a group this big for months!  We feel very blessed to have them.  We also feel grateful that they came to us in normal hours :).  No trips to the airport in the middle of the night, thank you!  We like getting 5 straight hours of sleep.  You are so good to us already!!

Welcome to our mandatory blood test. What a way to start!!

Changing Assistants

With this change came a new assistant.  Elder Fairbanks has left us and we gained Elder Murphy who will serve with Elder Villacreses. These Elders are incredible!  They do so much to lead this mission, work hard themselves in their area and make all the trips back and forth to the airport and other places.  We are so grateful to have their dedication.
