This morning at 0830, Elder Gowans went back to the Dentist for him to install a temporary crown. After that was done, he dashed to the Augusta Ward building to join our last Zone meeting with President and Sister Holm. They came down to specifically to say good bye to us and to encourage everyone to be faithful and loyal to our Savior by showing that same faithfulness and loyalty to our new Mission President, President Cottle. They will arrive in Macon, Georgia on Thursday. At that time we will be all officially members of the Georgia Macon Mission. We were briefed by the two Elders who will be his assistants, we were taught by Sister Holm and President Holm. We have had a wonderful 13 months or so in the South Carolina Columbia Mission and look forward to the new Georgia Macon Mission. Next week our new Mission President will be up to hold a conference with us so we can all get to know each other.

This evening we visited two new families who have moved into the Grovetown Ward. The Christiansen and De La Torre families, both wonderful families. We wish we could get better acquainted with them. We have one more family yet to be able to contact. We leave voice mail with them, but no return contact yet.

Here are some photos of the day's events:
