July 2013 Departing Missionaries

When they first arrived in the mission field, I am sure they were a group of 

scared and inexperienced missionaries. 

The night before they left, they came to our home.  They truly had grown up and changed these past 18-24 months.  They had come to love and accept each other and you could feel the power of their testimonies! They are a wonderful group of Disciples of Jesus Christ. 

Front Row: Sister Waldman, Sister McCracken, Sister Craig, President Craig

Middle Row: Elder Evans, Elder Baczuk, Elder Suttner, Elder Nelson, Elder Green

Welcoming our New Missionaries!

         We'd like to give them a warm welcome to the Jacksonville area. (Literally, very warm). 

Our first group of missionaries as new mission president and wife.  We are excited to get to know them and integrate them into the rest of our wonderful missionaries.  This is the biggest group of Sisters yet! We have come to love them all already.  It is so amazing how that happens.
