These 16 missionaries finished their missions this week.  The sisters include our very first group of younger sisters after President Monson announced the age change in October of 2012.  Sister Moreno was the first young sister to arrive in our mission.  Elders Crapo, Walker, Warburton and Ordonez were "visa waiters" and served several months before making it to Spain.  We love these missionaries.  Good luck in the next phase! 
 
 
Sister Anderson's parents came to pick her up.
