This was a bitter sweet day. We drove to the mission home, north of Tampa, to meet with the departing missionaries. There were 7 missionaries who are departing early tomorrow morning -- all of them had leadership positions in the mission. With each departing missionary group, we wonder how we will replace the leadership. But it seems as though new leaders begin to emerge as the younger missionaries gain more experience.
One of the departing missionaries, Elder Janda, is from Toulouse, France. He is facing a 19 hour flight home, including two long layovers. He will not arrive at home until Wednesday.
