July 25, 2012 - More New Missionaries!

Wednesday morning, the bus came back, and brought the rest of the new elders.  Hooray!  However, we had a bunch of new sisters we were supposed to get, and they forgot them.  So on this transfer, the bus had to come to our mission THREE times!  The sisters arrived a little later in the morning.

 Breakfast and paperwork.  Passports.  Driver's licences.  Tiwi cards for driving.  ATM cards for your fair share, so that you can eat every month.  Letters home to mom and dad - "I got here safely."  Information from the office.  What to do if you get sick.  Fresh new planners for the next six weeks, and a planner cover that declares you to be a Zion Missionary from the Utah Salt Lake City Mission!

 Then the last of our new missionaries arrived.  Finally!

So now, it's time for pictures with the President.  Eighteen months, or two years, they both seem like they will last FOREVER!
