This is the most fun at transfers, when the new missionaries meet their trainers!
President Russell calls up the trainer and shows a picture of the area they will be serving in and then announces who she will be training.
Sister Leavitt and Sister Datwyler
Sister Allen and Sister Allred
Sister Marin and Sister Fjerstad
Sister Clark and Sister Mousser
Sister Francis and Sister Hawkes
Sister Fiagle and Sister Wood
Once that excitement is over the Sisters meet the office senior missionaries. Each of these senior missionaries have a responsibility and they explain what they do to the Sisters.
Sister Mabey is the office secretary and is training Sister Jensen, she let Sister Jensen sit this first time out.
She handles the baptismal records, and various other office duties.
Elder Mabey, who is training Elder Jensen is the vehicle coordinator. He takes care of the all the cars and makes sure all missionaries are driving safely with the TIWIs. He also takes care of their phones.
Sister Danley is our nurse. She, like all the office senior missionaries, is quite busy! She tells the Sisters about how to stay healthy and happy, She will be the one to call if they get sick or need to go to the doctor. She also passed out the emergency bags the Sisters are keep supplies if they have to leave in a hurry.
Elder Danley is our apartment coordinator. He makes sure all the apartments are safe, they all have what they need in their apartments. He also makes sure their fire and CO alarms are working well. I almost forgot, he also handles the bikes. But since none of these Sisters have bikes, he was off the hook this transfer,
Elder Bullock is the financial missionary. He handles any problems with their support cards. He also takes care of paying rent, etc. for the mission.
Sister Bullock is our referrals secretary. Whenever she receives a referral she makes sure it gets to the proper missionaries. Often missionaries will give her referrals for other parts of the United States and the world. In addition to that she takes care of the mail.
And now to see where these Sisters will be serving!
