Arrivers Dinner and Training!

These were some hungry missionaries!  Enjoying a wonderful dinner provided 

by our great senior couples.

Elder Christy, Elder Coroton and Elder Toi . Three  great leaders in this mission.

Waiting to see who they will be training.

If I'm real sneaky, I can get a picture or two of Elder  Wilmott!  Here he is with 

Elder Flinders and Elder Sennett. We have the best cooks ever in our mission!

Maybe it was a requirement to serve here?  

I think I caught our assistants with the ice cream!!

This is Elder and Sister Sennett who serve diligently with historic

records.  Their calling falls under our mission umbrella and we are very

blessed.  Not only that but Sister Sennett makes the most delicious potatoes ever!!

The legendary Elder Toi helping with the dishes.  His mother taught him well.

Elder Christy who was just called to be a new Zone Leader in the Mildura Zone,

is kind of happy to have some dessert!  Actually Elder  Christy is always happy. 

We are so  blessed to have him in the Australia Adelaide Mission.

New missionaries anxiously waiting to see who they will be trained by.

Arrivers, Dinner, and Transfers!

Our first stop is to the Mission Office to meet the office couples and take care

of all kinds of business.  Here we are in front of the office ready to get to work.

It's been a long but wonderful day and we need to feed this great group of 

missionaries so they can meet their trainers!  We are meeting at the Firle

Stake Center for a lovely dinner prepared by our wonderful senior couples. 

Wonderful sisters ready to train our new sister missionaries.

Elder Pitcher, our brand new assistant, with Elder Wilkins and one of our trainers,

Elder Orr.

Great trainers who will lead with exact obedience.

Elder Hales, another great trainer and one of President Parkers great assistants, and

Elder Pitama, who shared one of his favorite foods from New Zealand with 

President.  It's called crackle and it's fried pig skin with a little fat.  Apparently,

it tastes like bacon.  

Elder Jurgens, President Parker, and Elder Hobbs. One more great trainer who is 

obedient and ready to train.

Always working hard, Elder and Sister Smith getting dinner ready for all. We love

you.

The Hannans.  Always taking care of everyone.  Elder Hannan just had shoulder 

surgery but it can't keep him down.  He was even up doing his best to wait on us.  

We love you.

Elder and Sister Gray.  Two of the hardest working people you'll ever meet.  Elder

Gray barbecued all of the meat for tonight's dinner and did a fabulous job!  It was

delicious.  We love you!

After dinner we all told something we love about the Austalia, Adelaide Mission.

That is an easy list to make.  This is Elder Maughn and what he loves about being

here is the apple pie!  We all agree it is wonderful!  Love you Elder Maughn!
