February Transfers

I LOVE transfer days.  They are l o n g days, but some of the very best!  We left the apartment at 6:30am and got home around 9:30pm.  We gave orientation to the new missionaries, attended transfer meeting (so good!), back to the office, fixed dinner for the departing missionaries, attended testimony meeting with them.  Such a fine day! 

Yesterday we received 12 missionaries, 4 of whom are awaiting visas to Mexico.  We may have them for only a couple of weeks.  We send home 14 missionaries tomorrow.  Next Tuesday two additional missionaries will arrive -- one sister and one elder.  This is going to be so interesting.  President Castro indicated that by the end of the year, there could be as many as 90,000 to 100,000 missionaries in the field!  WOW!  And the Lord is preparing people to be taught by all those missionaries.  So exciting!
