Senior Couples: Coming And Going

Paalam Po Elder and Sister Richards
It is sad when a Senior Couple leaves us to return home. They have such a huge spiritual influence on the members and the missionaries. Many will miss Elder and Sister Richards - their love is unconditional and they worked hard while here to help the mission run smoothly. We are thankful for them and their desire to give 19 months to love and serve the people within our mission. 
 
 
Happy Birthday Sister Richards
 
Just one more picture - before they head to the airport. Ingat!

Welcome To Our New Senior Couples
Elder and Sister Simon
Elder and Sister Harvey
The Simon's and the Harvey's arrived ready to work and serve, serve, serve. They LOVE the missionaries! They LOVE the Gospel of Jesus Christ! We can already see what great examples they will be to the members and to the missionaries. Add this to the great work and dedicated service of Elder and Sister Petersen who arrived 8 months ago, and we are three senior couples strong! President Tye and I call them our "Mighty Six!"  But blessings are still coming our way, our numbers are still growing. We will receive two more senior couples within the next two months. By the end of November, we will be calling our senior couples the "The Magnificent Ten." We are so thankful that they are here and we love them dearly!

Welcome!

WELCOME!
What a blessing - Twenty more elders and sisters!

The first half of our new missionaries arrived at 7:30am, but the other half did not arrive until three hours later. We were all so worried! I think the driver took the long way here. Everyone was so happy when the second van arrived. 
Now, on with the pictures . . .
