Transfer Day - October 2013

October 17, 2013

Transfer days are pretty hectic.  We have missionaries coming and going and excited and scared.  Some leave early and some leave late.  Early in the morning we set out a buffet-type breakfast so they can eat whenever it fits in the schedule.  They have to rotate through showers and shaving.  The elders have no qualms about eating before their shower.  The sisters usually don't show their faces until they are completely dressed and have their hair combed.

We always have the new missionaries at the villa the night before transfers.   Sometimes we have missionaries who are being transferred to areas that are far away who come in and spend the night at the villa as well.  This time we had two sisters who had completed their missions and were returning home the next day who needed a place to spend the night.  It's difficult to keep everything straight, but by the end of the day everyone is on their way to somewhere.  It's an incredible process.











Two new sisters, two departing sisters, five new elders.
