Each change at about the four or five week mark we have follow up training for the new missionaries and their companions. The purpose of this training is to make sure the trainers are doing what they are supposed to be doing and to re-train the new missionaries on some of the most important items since most pretty much sleep through the original training--due to getting up very early in the morning to fly here.
Due to lengthy travel time, those missionaries stationed in Vallarta do not come into this meeting, but we go to them. They will receive their training this coming week.
In these pictures they are all working on planning.
Later the assistants led them in a game of asking for references. After asking a question they then selected a ball from the bag. If they got a yes, they could return to their seats, if they got a no they had to keep playing. The first team to have everyone in their seats won.
Poor Sister M was the last one on her team to get a yes, and it took MANY questions to get it.
Finally!! And just in time to beat out the other team!
Next another game was played. This one was a competition to see who knew the questions on a reference card the best. And the winner?! None other than Elder B. Good job!
We had a great time and look forward to meeting with the other new missionaries next week in Vallarta!
Thank you for posting pictures. It is alway fun to see our missionary in action.
