Jeremy arrives in Latvia

This picture was taken on July 10th and is of the eight newly arrived missionaries at the airport with President and Sister Boswell.  

Do they look jet-lagged?  They left the MTC 26 hours before they arrived in Riga, so counting the time they were up before the left the MTC and the time to get their luggage out to the parking lot, my guess is that they have been up and traveling for almost 30 hours!

Elder Jeremy Massey's MTC Photos

Jeremy was in the MTC [Missionary Training Center] from May 9th to July 9th.  He seems to have enjoyed his two months there.  He left the MTC on Monday July 9th and flew from Salt Lake City to Chicago to Frankfurt Germany and then to Riga Latvia.  He arrived in Latvia in the afternoon of Tuesday July 10th.

Here's some of his photos from the MTC...

Roommates (we think)

Every Tuesday there is a devotional at the MTC, here's all the missionaries gathered for a devotional

No matter what century you go away on a mission it is a challenge and a blessing
