NEW YEAR BEGINNINGS 2025

Image
 January has flown by and so we'll try to recap what wonderful events took place out here in the Washington, DC North mission.  Elder Hinton and I try to keep some New Year's goals and be more consistent in some of our study habits.  We love going to the Temple weekly and once a month we help in the baptistry with the Young Single Adult Temple day.  We enjoy that activity and then they go over to the Visitor's Center to eat together after.  We got a new Doctrine and Covenants study guide for Christmas and have enjoyed the insights taught to us. We said good bye to our Director of the Visitor's Center - the Colton's.  They worked closely with us through our shifts at the Visitor's Center during the Festival of Lights.  All of the senior missionaries and some of the mission presidency were there.  It was a time to reflect on what amazing work happened with the missionaries serving there.   We now have a new display at the Visitor's Center....

SO LONG 2024!

Celebrating at zone conference for President Nelson's birthday. We had a great experience with all the missionaries.
