ALL IN ONE DAY -- HELLO AND GOOD-BYE

  We had 6 American missionaries all leave the same day along with Elder and Sister Nistler.  We also had 3 new American missionaries arrive that morning.  Busy day for all of us.

What an emotional day.....we go from excitement and joy to receive wonderful new Elders to saying good by to those we have been with for so long.

WELCOME
Elder Christensen, Elder Smith and Elder Champion

 

They are finally here!

 Elder Smith, Elder Christensen, Elder Champion
