Really, Elder Gomez? Not ALL of the blogs can be about you!
On October 24th, we gathered a whole bunch of the missionaries at the office for breakfast, because we had a whole busload of Visa-Waiters coming in! It seems that nobody wants to give our missionaries their visas! We have Elders waiting to go to Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Sweden - you name it and we have missionaries who want to go there! But they can't, so they come to our mission and work until the visa comes through. None of us know how long they will be here. One day, the consulate will just call up and say, "Come tomorrow." So they do, and then they are on their way. But until then, we just LOVE having them here! They are prepared and enthusiastic, fun and wonderful. The only bad part is giving them back after we learn to love them, which doesn't take us very long. They are amazing missionaries, and we're glad to have them here, no matter how long they stay.
Sister Larsen from Denmark, Sister Jin from China and Sister Fujii from Japan. We're quite the mission! And all three of these are ours forever, we get to keep them!
