Missionaries arrive safely China Hong Kong Mission...October 20, 2015

Wednesday, October 21, 2015

Today we got an email from Ian's Mission President.  He included a quick note and a photo. There was also a photo on his Facebook page.  It was so great to get this news and see Ian and his group arrive safely!



Dear Parents,

Just to let you all know that your missionary has arrived safely in Hong Kong. They are a little tired but excited and enthusiastic. Thank you so much for raising these fine young men and women of God. We love them already.

Best regards,

President Lam
China Hong Kong Mission


We may not hear from Ian on his P day because Russell M. Nelson is going to be visiting the mission.  Whatever we hear will be wonderful!  

President Lam has a Facebook page, on which was posted the following:   


Transfer week
We have 24 new missionaries and 8 departing this week. The 24 new one arrived the evening of the 20th. We were so busy that day and the APs and office elders were getting things ready for the new apartments that the mission has recently rented. We ended up grabbing a quick bit to eat at a Thai restaurant a few minutes from the airport before meeting them. This is another great group of missionaries that the Lord has sent to labor here. You can see from their countenance. They are eager and ready to serve and to bring people to come unto Christ. We are grateful to have them here, serving with us.  



So, not only did we get to see the group picked up at the airport, we got to see them standing in front of the temple.  This is taken just outside the mission home, which is across the street.  

Then, we also got video posted on President Lam's Facebook page of the trainers and the 24 new trainees!  If I can post a link to the video I will.  For the time being, here is the picture of the trainers

and the trainees!  Ian is the last one on the right.

Another missionary posted a photo in their cramped patron housing.  I'm pretty sure they were just glad to be off the airplane after such a long flight.
