We went straight from the airport right to the train station to pick up 9 amazing looking missionaries! We are happy to report that all arrived safely and with smiles on their faces. We are so excited for these great servants of God to begin their journey.
After a brief presentation and welcome to the mission, we all took a trip to Mont Juic to overlook the city of Barcelona and the missionaries had a moment of prayer and pondering.
The missionaries all went out with temporary companions for their first night and the next morning we all met back in the Mission Home. The trainers and trainees all enjoyed a lunch together, and then we had our meeting and assignment of trainers.
Elder Doman will be trained by Elder Bradshaw in Terrassa!
Elder Astorga will be trained by Elder Dixon in Manacor!
Elder Chin Ah You will be trained by Elder Kreutz in Palma!
