This is a blog site where we can share our experiences and pictures of our upcoming mission. We were set apart by Elder Jeffery R. Holland and Elder Steven Snow yesterday and we enter the MTC today. We will be serving in the Nigeria Enugu Mission where Jerry has been called as the Mission President.
Nigeria has 140 million people which is about half of the population of the United States. It is the size of California, Arizona, and Nevada and is the most populous country in Africa. The church membership is about 80,000 members and is one of the fastest growing areas in the world. The Nigeria Enugu mission is one of five missions in Nigeria. In our mission we will be responsible for ninety missionaries which are all from Africa except for two from Samoa. The mission covers three stakes, three districts, five mission branches and it's a wonderful part of the Lord's vineyard.
We came home in March from serving as the Africa West Area Welfare Specialists in Ghana, Africa. We have enjoyed our time with family and friends the past three months and wish we could have seen all of you.
