Christmas Zone Conference December 12, 2013 With President & Zuster Robinson and Elder & Zuster Texeira Half of Mission |
This particular blog entry will change every six weeks with the change in our district. These people are so dear to us, that we feel we must include them in our memories of these "best two years" of our life in the mission field in Netherlands and Belgium.

This picture was taken on May 18, 2015.
On the way to our P-Day Service Project, Elder Shaw received a call from President Robinson informing him that he had been selected to be one of the Singing Missionaries. His transfer was the following day, so this picture is the last one of our District which includes Elder Shaw. Regular transfers are next week, and our next picture will include those changes.

Groningen District (11)
This picture was taken on January 20, 2015. There was a change in every single companionship except ours! We thought at least the District Co-Leaders, Elders Childs and Strikwerda would stay together, but Elder Childs was called to be a Zone Leader in Antwerpen. We will also gain another companionship of Elders in Groningen because missionary work is progressing very well here.

We had to add this crazy picture because we have had such fun as a district this transfer! |
Groningen District (10)
This picture was taken December 9, 2014. Elder Giles and Zuster Thorley ended their mission and returned home. Notice the matching scarfs and ties presented to us at a Sinterklaas Daag District Party. We have decided that we like dark backgrounds...it is better to see our gray/white hair with!

Groningen District (9)
This picture was taken on October 28, 2014. Zuster Aldous completed her mission the following days and has returned home. Two of our zusters are missing and they are shown in another picture below. Can you tell what fun we have in this district?

Zusters Bradley, Elting and Fleming |
When our District picture was taken Zuster Elting was sick and Zuster Bradley was taking care of her. We took this picture of them as soon as Zuster Elting recovered. Zuster Fleming had joined the companionship for Zuster Elting's final three weeks of her mission.

This district picture was taken on June 24, 2014, a very special day for us...our 43rd wedding anniversary!

It had been our dream since before our marriage to serve a mission together. Little did we know that 43 years later, the Lord would call us to serve in this beautiful country where Elder Romig served his 1st mission as a young Elder!
This is one companionship that will stay together throughout eternity!

This district picture was taken while we enjoyed the beautiful Keukenhof Gardens following a special day at the Den Haag Temple.

This picture was taken at our District Meeting on April Fool's Day 2014, the day before transfers.
Our District Leader, Elder Van Komen has completed his mission and is going home. He had several leadership positions including Assistant to the President before finishing his mission here in Groningen. Elder Besendofer has been in this district since arriving in the Netherlands and is transferred to Amersfoort to be their new District Leader. Zuster Larson has been with us since we arrived in the Netherlands, first in Amsterdam and now in Groningen. She has been our Zuster Trainer. She is being transferred to Gent Belgium and will still be the Zuster Trainer there. Zuster Clement is our new Zuster Trainer.
