After the transfer, and the new missionaries went off with their trainers, the finishing missionaries came in. I got Elder Sweeten with his parents last week. I didn't have my camera for Elder Klinefelter's reunion with his Mom and aunt. But I made it down to see Elder Allred right after he greeted his parents. I was upstairs getting ready to feed this group. You can see that Elder Allred's parents are so happy to be with him and proud of him too.
These four missionaries have been so great for the mission. They work hard. Three of them have been Zone Leaders. Elder Sweeten also an Assistant. Elders Allred and Klinefelter both worked in the office. Both play the piano and sing. We will miss them all.
Left to right: Elders Allred, Klinefelter, Sweeten, and Leng. Elder Leng goes back to Kampong Cham.
The farewell picture. I can't believe they didn't put their arm around me too! (Just kidding: in a couple of years I can give all of our missionaries a big hug!)
Thanks Heidi Klinefelter for giving me the address to the blog! I am jealous that your son is home with you! I hope you are enjoying him!
