New District

Every Wednesday morning we drive one hour up to St.Lazare to go to our District Study Meeting. Today was the first one after last week's transfers. We practically have a brand new district. Only 2 of the 6 stayed - Our district leader, Elder Garcia (who will go home in Feb.) and Elder Flores serving in Kirkland.
We always go to lunch afterward. Since we got a brand-new elder - Elder McMurrin from Bentonville, AR- we had to go to La Belle Provence so he could have his first Poutine. From front left around the table: Elder Teuira -Tahiti (comp is Elder Flores across the table), Elder Glenn- from Holiday, UT, Elder McMurrin- Bentonville, AR, across the table at back is Elder Garcia -our district leader who hates to smile for pictures & so is hiding, his new comp - Elder DeSousa from France (who speaks English, French, Spanish, AND Portugese!!) and Elder Flores at the front from Texas. Elders Glenn and McMurrin flushed into Valleyfield area which means the 2 Elders that were serving there both got transferred and now they are both brand new to a new area and District. They all seem really wonderful.
