First Day!


Monday was our first day of training.  We rode the subway from our apartment in Brooklyn to a school in Queens where we will meet daily for the classroom portion of our training.  We only have 1 transfer but the total trip takes about 90 minutes.  We were a little anxious about riding the subway with our young boys.  Much to our surprise, a woman graciously gave up her seat for Jacob.  Meanwhile, Asher succeeded in getting several stern looking New Yorkers to smile!

Once at the school, we had an orientation with our fellow missionaries.  The group of missionaries includes 51 adults and 49 children!  This is the largest Cross-Cultural Training group that Mission to the World has trained at one time.

Please pray for our instructors, our fellow missionaries, and their children.
