Returning Group #1 in 2017!!!!!!

As we get the new missionaries off for their exciting start to their mission experience, we meet with the group of 7 that is headed home after the completion of their mission.  We met them at the temple in Västerhaninge for a final temple session in Swedish.  Pictured left to right are:  Elder Castleton-Rudolph, Elder Reed, Elder Hainsworth, Elder Perkins, Elder Richards, Elder Johanson, Elder White, and Sister and President Beckstrand.

A "Hurrah" for a job well done.

After the temple session with this group, we relaxed at the mission home for a final meal with this wonderful group of Elders.  Pictured left to right, clockwise, are:  Elder Castleton-Rudolph, Elder Johanson, Elder Richards, Elder White, Elder Reed, Elder Hainsworth, and Elder Perkins.

Elder and Sister Clouse, Sister Beckstrand, and Sister and Elder Anderson.
 

Elder Reed was surprised by a big pan full of Rice Krispy treats from the Pence Family.  A nice send off for all of these missionaries.  We will miss them and we wish them God speed as they begin this new chapter in their life story.
