Wednesday P-Day--Ft. Smith Regional Art Gallery

The transfer cycle that ended the end of May was done differently than before.  Instead of having Monday as p-day, it was moved to Wednesday.  Instead of being notified of transfers on Sunday evening and then moving on Friday, missionaries were notified on Wednesday morning (at 7:00 am) and then the transfers on Friday.

Missionaries are encouraged to do cultural activities on their p-days to learn about the areas where they serve so we went together to a local art gallery on that Wednesday.  It only has items by local artists and included stories and information about the art work next to it.  I liked it but it wasn't everyone's idea of a good time.

Mostly, they were in shock because so many missionaries were transferred--more than expected, Alma area was closed, and the YSA missionaries were transferred away.  We were all sad.  We took some group shots but I haven't seen them yet.  Part of missionary life we are just getting used to--people coming and going!
