MIssion Grand kids


This is Elder Mintah (Alfred), his wife Rebecca and their two children Christabel and her newly born (four days old) Brother - Alfred JR. Elder Mintah was one of our Congo Missionaries who lives in Tesshie which is about 20 minutes from the MTC. He is the one who does all the scripture bag sewing, and some ties, and some back packs, does a little upholstery and one who followed his mission president's advise to go home, find a young lady (in this case a returned missionary) and begin a family.

This is Elder Kouassi - one of our missionaries from the Congo from the Ivory Coast. His wife is Lydia and their two children. We bumped into Elder Kouassi at the temple - he had come with a large group that had come to do Baptisms and other ordinances and he was able to come out and spend part of a day with us here at the mission home. Brought with him news of the some of the other missionaries in the Ivory Coast and seems to be doing very well.





So that gives us four mission grand kids that we have personally met and fallen in love with. Needless to say they won't replace the ones we have at home, but Grandma held the Mintah baby all during Sunday School today and seems all the better for the experience.
