Transfer Meeting

It's probably the most spiritual, uplifting and fun meeting of the mission. We love the excitement of transfers and new missionaries. We love the testimonies and strength of the departing missionaries. It builds us up with the drive to continue on. I put in a lot of pictures this time. I want all the families of new missionaries to see their own and to see who their trainers will be.

We are singing our mission song complete with 'Go Forward' actions.  These are the departing missionaries

In the following pictures the trainers are introducing the new missionaries.  I will label them from left to right.

Elder Morris will train Elder Bigley.

Elder Whitby is waiting for a visa to Brazil but will be trained by Elder Howell until then.

Elder Nicholson will train Elder Nelson.  Both are Spanish speakers.

Elder Evans will be trained by Elder McArthur.  Also Spanish

Elder Godfrey will be trained by Elder Hansen.

Elder Bishop will be trained by Elder Bass.

Elder Ross will train Elder Housel.

Elder Larrocha will train Elder Warren, Spanish speakers.

During the weeks before transfers we have scriptures that we memorize. So at transfer meeting we have scripture memorization competition. They pick the scripture reference randomly out of a bag. These picture are of each zone giving their recitations. Only missionaries who are affected by the transfer come to transfer meetings so the pictures are not full zones.
