Onward Christian Soldiers - Welcoming New Missionaries (Day 2)

Wow! What a fun day! This new group of missionaries is truly spectacular! This morning the new missionaries came to the Barcelona 2nd Ward Chapel where they met up with their yet unassigned trainers. After a delicious lunch of barbecue pork sandwiches with a salad on the side we took the above group picture then moved into the final training meeting. We heard messages about the Vision of the Mission, What we do in El Faro, and a presentation entailing many aspects of the missionary work here in Spain.

After welcoming all the missionaries to Barcelona we had a quick meeting to begin introducing these wonderful missionaries to their new home. After that meeting we enjoyed a delicious meal of enchiladas with corn and a salad on the side for lunch followed by a brownie and ice cream for dessert! 

After lunch we went to Mont Juïc. This is always a special trip for the new missionaries. They had the opportunity to look over the entirety of Barcelona and take a moment reflect on the special experiences that they are about to have.
