Presidente and Sorella Waddoups with Anziano Ridd Rome |
The new missionaries in Anziano Ridd's group arrived from the Missionary Training Centers in both Spain and Provo, Utah |

We received this email from Lukas (Anziano Ridd) on Tuesday, April 26. On Monday morning, he and about 7 other missionaries flew out of Salt Lake City, then on to JFK in New York, and then on to Rome. (Let me tell you, it was so thrilling to receive the email and photos!! Plus to see the "borrowed" photos from the mission blog...it does a mom's heart good...)
In Rome, he met his new mission president and his wife, President and Sister Waddoups. The new missionaries were then whisked off to see many special places in Rome, including the Rome Italy temple site (under construction) and the Colosseum...amongst others....to keep the missionaries awake and to get their jet lag under control.
Anziano Ridd and the other new missionaries had special training and then received their new assignments and companions. They transfer to their new areas on Thursday, April 28.
