"Your missionary sons"

We received an email this morning, re: Your Missionary Sons, from Sisters Faye Wade and Bonnie Marshall, who are senior sisters currently serving the Young Adults, ages 18-30, in Budapest. However, sometimes they are asked to speak in outlying areas and were in Pécs the other day and took this photo:



Pictured with Josh are Elders Adrian Baumgartl; Matthew Caviness; Alex Recksiek and two others whose names I don't know. If I find out, I'll be sure to post them.

They expressed their appreciation for "our sons" who are serving the people so diligently, they have been told by the members in the area how much they appreciate the missionary's service. It's comforting to know that there are so many looking out for them as they serve, including senior missionaries, whether serving as couples or individually. Our boys are never, ever alone on their missions. With Josh half a world away, it's really good to know that. They never go without, they are looked after, cared for, and doing just fine.

In the life of a missionary, baptism days are very special. Here are some highlights from the October 24th baptism held in Pécs.
