A NEW CALLING

Yes, we are embarking on a new calling that will lead us to Eastern Europe. The Romanian/Moldovan Mission is nestled in the far east area with the Ukraine o the north and east borders and on the west is Hungary, Serbia, and Bulgaria on the South. Romania is 93,000 square miles just a bit larger than Wyoming.  Moldova is the other part of the mission and is only 13,000 square miles or about the size of Maryland.
We only had a short time to prepare to leave and master the language before our entering the MTC. Oops forget about mastering the language, because it is hard.  A couple examples:  Good morning "buna  dimineata", Where is the bathroom? "unde e baia". This will be an adventure!
With all the mission preparation Sister Cooley was working desperately  to pack our belongings up and finish the kitchen remodeling that has been going on. D-day came so quickly and we were on our way.
 "But President, we did pack light!"
