Reese Family

This is the world map showing where all the Senior Missionary Couples who are in our Humanitarian group are going. It is amazing all the different places we are going and the different assignments we have been given. The assignments are Humanitarian, Employment, and Medical.




This is the Language Training Room for the missionaries going to the country of Georgia. Here are the two fantastic Elders going to Georgia at the same time as us, Elders Offuit and Steggel (LtoR). They have had to learn both Russian and Georgian because the scriptures (Book of Mormon) are only in Russian. Amazing as it has only been 9 weeks since they started! Brother Brown, the first Georgian missionary (2005) who is one of the instructors, said that these two Elders have learned the language the fastest of the missionaries sent to Georgia so far. We study with them in the evenings and they are so good at helping us and so patient. They are always full of energy and so very excited.

These are on the MTC (Mission Training Center) campus. Today is Preparation Day for us, the day to do laundry, write home, polish shoes, and catch up on other personal items. Note: No dress or suits for a few hours today-yea! A time to relax and catch our breaths. Some think it's cold here..but Sister Reese, "The sun is shinning!".

We just had Peter's bike shipped to him, this reminded us of him.

Laundry Day! This picture shows only about 1/8th the size of the laundry. It is very efficient, the machines worked very well, and very inexpensive, ($.25 to wash and $.50 to dry!).

We are on the second floor this is the hall and stairs to get to our room. The building is being remodeled and a large addition is being added on. Apparently we were very lucky as our room has been perfect. Some of the other Senior Couples have had problems with hot water, heat, and noise. We feel really bad for them.

In the main meeting room building there is a very large hallway and in it is this very large world map. It is tradition for everyone to take there picture in front of it pointing to where they are going. There is Georgia!

This our District (The small group we worked together with the first week), we became very close as we studied hard and role played and shared many spiritual experiences. (LtoR)
