Elder Jim and Sister Linda Twelmeyer have been serving their mission since June of 2020. They have served in the Africa/Middle East/ Europe area under Matt Heiss mainly reading missionary journals and writing WebCat entries for them. They have also served as assistant zone leaders for the past year. Sister Twelmeyer also served as our branch Relief Society president. They were released from their full-time mission on December 16 and transitioned to church service missionaries. They will work remotely about 16 hours a week. They are heading back to their home in Cleveland, Ohio, and later to their beach home in Hilton head, North Carolina where we hope to visit them someday.

Sister Audenart also was released and transitioned to a church service missionary as well. We will miss working with her in zone leadership as well. She has been an amazing help even from Canada where she has served her entire mission from home because of Covid related visa problems.
There is a real loss with Twelmeyers leaving. They have been here since we arrived and we have grown to love them. We have played games with them, gone to dinner, and had long conversations at our home. It also serves to remind us that our mission will also someday come to an end which makes the feelings even more real for us.
How lucky we are to have known these great people and how we hope that our paths will cross again in the future.
Best of luck to the Twelmeyers and Sister Audenart! Thanks for your great work and glad you are continuing to serve.
