We are excited to have the new missionaries here. We (Elder & Sister Williams, Elder McCann & Elder Ott, President & Sister Pimentel) anxiously wait at the airport. We gather briefly before heading to the office for check-in with Sister Monson and Sister Gibson (and later, Elder Monson and Elder Gibson). A full day is planned (including a short nap) before an evening of street contacting.
Thursday morning our "Goldens" (gold is precious, soft and can be written on and everyone wants them) take a walk across "no man's land" to Mauerplatz (the place of the Wall). Here we have a quiet time to hear the blessings pronounced upon this land that the missionaries help fulfill. Then, on to the Lankwitz building for companionship assignments, testimonies and instruction. It is a special treat to see the excitement as they leave for their first area with their Trainer - so happy to be here!
