With so many missionaries departing this transfer, there were many changes in mission leadership. As another example of how the Lord directs the work, we wonder how the new leaders can do as well as the ones before. Yet time after time, we see these missionaries rise to their call and lead with inspiration and great confidence. They are wonderful.
