The First Week

The first week seemed super busy! When I talked to Presidente y Hermana Henke a few days after they got to Mexico, it sounded like they had hardly had time to sit down! 😄 They sounded very happy. After meeting each zone at the end of last week, they went with the missionaries from some the smaller branches and met a few people that the missionaries were teaching, which was really special. They were able to attend a couple of baptismal services in their first few days in Juarez.  
Here are a few pictures from the last week:

Sister Call, the wife of the stake president in Colonial Juarez, gave them a quick history tour of a few sights in the colonies.
