They are here!!!

We are so excited to welcome our 10 new missionaries!!!
They have arrived safe and sound!
And we are so thankful they have come to join our Mexico Guadalajara Mission!
Welcome! Welcome!

This morning, eight of our new missionaries
arrived from the Mexico City MTC.


I love their bright and happy faces!




A quick picture just before we exited
 the airport doors.


We helped these missionaries and their
 luggage into an airport taxi,
and they left with our assistants to the 
Union building by the Guadalajara Temple.


President Clayton and I waited an hour to welcome
Sister Paredes who came solo from her home
in Mexico.  She is waiting for her delayed visa,
 and we are so thankful she can join us 
here in the mission until her visa arrives!

Getting ready to meet their companions for the day!



They are ready to head out for their first full
day in the mission... Book of Mormon in hand!


This evening, our final new missionary,
Elder Schofield arrived coming to us 
from the Provo MTC. 
What a long day this has been for him.  
We are so happy to have him here safe and sound!
Welcome to our 10 newest missionaries!!!
