New Missionary Host

We got to host and escort the new people this week! I hosted three sisters. I can't remember all of their names right now, but I have seen them all since and checked to make sure they were still doing okay.

It was pretty cool hosting! Everyone else was sore from doing it and carrying all of the heavy suitcases but only one suitcase that I carried was heavier than any I brought.

All in all, it was super cool!


I shared with Jeanette the following after we dropped her off. As we drove into the underground parking lot there were missionaries lined up on the right cheering. It reminded me of when the Saints came into the Salt Lake City area, where the temple area is now, the Saints would line both sides of the streets cheering on the new Saints arriving from out East walking along side handcarts or wagons. It also reminded me of Elder Holland's quote: "He cheers on every runner, calling out that the race is against sin, not against each other."
