You Made a Difference

The night before our missionaries leave we meet for dinner,

testimonies, and they receive a mission certificate showing

their areas of service and companions.

Furniss The purpose of life is not just individual happiness.... but to matter, be productive, be useful, and to have made a difference These wonderful missionaries did make a difference in Korea Daejeon Mission.

The famous "transfer board" lets our new misionaries get their

first look at all of our missionaries, and who their trainer will be.

Good luck
