Transfer Day-Aug 3, 2011
Transfer Day was held August 3rd in Moore, OK. There are several phases to transfers. First, we have new missionaries and their trainers arrive and provide some training. Then we have the trainers remove their nametags and come into the room with the new missionaries, who have studied the trainers names and faces. The new missionaries do pretty well at identifying each missionary!
