Feb Transfer: Incoming Missionaries

An impressive group of new missionaries (back row)
Brother Kamio is not a FT missionary. He is from Iwaki and is ready to send in his missionary papers. However, he has a headache problem and no one is sure he will be able to withstand the riggors of a full-time missionary with this health problem. Because we had an elder go home early, Gary came up with the idea that we could use Bro. Kamio for one transfer which would give him a good idea of what is required of him as a missionary. He is more prepared than most FT Missionaries in Preach My Gospel. He is very obedient and humble and would be a wonderful missionary. I hope we can find an answer to his headache problem so he can go on a mission.
It was time to say goodby to Elder Lay as an Assistant and send him into the field again as a companion/trainer to Bro. Kamio. They will be in Yamagata.
Elder Ohori from Kobe, Japan
Elder Holbrook will be the trainer for Elder Ohori in Kitakami.
Sister Takatsu from Saitama, Japan
Sis Maki will train Sis Takatsu in Hirosaki
The group picture before the left for their new areas of labor.

Sis Fukuda stayed the day with us until her new companion came in. Gary gave her a piece of licorice that Craig sent to him. Apparently Japanese people do NOT like the taste of licorice.
