Missionaries from Trujillo Sur Mission leave for Home

We were able to meet and greet the Sur missionaries as they left for home.

We sure love them all!

 Sister Sosa, Sister Bravo, Elder Bassey, Elder Aguilar, Elder Castillo, Elder Duque, 

Elder McClelland, Elder Pecheco, Elder Allen, Elder McClellan, Elder Angamarca, 

Elder Garcia, Elder Smith, and Elder Vargas.

 There were last hugs, and sharing of great memories.
Elder Pecheco with President Marler, we will sure miss his poems.

 …and a lot of smiles.

 Elder Garcia from Monterey, Mexico…sharing the flag of his mission country.

 Elder Aguilar and Elder Vargas (below) are from Lima, we look forward to seeing them before

we end our mission.  We are already beginning to make plans for a May reunion.

 We love all of the members that come to say good-bye, here a just a few of them.

Members of the Church love the missionaries, and the blessings from

that love is felt each day we serve.

 Elder Pacheco saying good-bye to Elder Angamarca.  

 High fives and hugs!  Elder Angamarca and Sister Marler 

sharing a few minutes before he is off to Bolivia.

 Sister Sosa, leaving for Argentina, with a ward member…all smiles.

 Through the glass, a final wave, this never gets easier.

But this says it all, we love you, and can't wait until the time we gather again.

First Concilio de Liderazgo of the Mission Trujillo North Mission

We had a wonderful day at our Concilio de Liderazgo meeting.  We started bright and early.

The Leadership Council attended a temple session,
what a great day to start the day!

 The missionaries say I don't put enough pictures of me on the blog,

 and since two of them are sitting here, watching me, I agreed to put this one on.  

I was walking up to the temple, 

looking at my eternal sweetheart when he took this picture. 

 Elder Aves, Elder Copa, Elder Phelps and Sister South take notes as President speaks.

 Not sure what Elder Mendoza and Elder Pequeño are doing, but they are having fun!

 Another group shop of the Council.  How nice to have the 10 Zone Leaders and Sister Leader Trainers with us from Zona Guadalupe, Zona Cajamarca Sur and Zona Cajamarca Norte.

 Sister South played a beautiful accompaniment to "Abide With Me" as we all sang.

Sister Reynolds provided the human music stand. 

Buen hecho, Hermanas!

 We then finished the day with a special meeting with the Sister Trainer Leaders at the mission home.

 Sister Perez and Sister Blackburn.
