Old & New Office



 When we came to the mission in July our "temporary" home (until another is remodeled) and our mission office were a few miles apart.  The office was in an apartment complex while our home was in a housing compound across town.  It could take anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour to travel between the two.

The end of February, when it looked like there were unavoidable delays in the new mission home, we were able to move our mission office to the home (now used as our office) 2 doors down from ours - to #3 Cocoa Palms.  

Some shots of the office before the move:

  1. What a beautiful country! Congratulations on the new office space. I'm Elder Eryk Stradling's mother. He sent me here to look at the pictures from May, but I thought I'd check out the other posts too. ;)
