Cambios…Changes

Every 6 weeks we have Changes in our mission, new missionaries come, those who have served for 2 years or Sisters who have served for 18 months return home. 
What about the rest of the mission? 
Well every 4-6 months they change companions as well, and here is what that looks like.
 First we all gather for a devotional, President and Sister Marler speak for a few minutes
and then we start announcing companions.
 As their names are called they greet their new companions and then get it a taxi or bus to go to their new area. 
 We always have an opening hymn and here Sister Worlton hold the book while Sister Allred plays the piano and Sister Farley directs the hymn.
 Everyone is very happy but a bit nervous about living with new companions
But everyone is happy to be together
