Annandale Zone Apartment Inspections continue

We continued with apartment inspections today.  Annandale Zone is the area we live in and so we didn't have to leave as early today.  Our first stop was the apartment of our wonderful office elders: Hill and Robbins, and the Assistants: Elders Gannaway and Gifford.  They are a wonderful example to the other missionaries of how to find, teach, invite, and love the investigators, they are wonderful teachers and leaders and now to top it off, their place had been cleaned to perfection.  They really go the extra mile.  They know the other missionaries look to them and they really do shine.  They had even pulled the fridge out and cleaned behind it.  Who does that?  unless the repair man is coming.  Way to go Elders!!!  This is apartment complex with Elder Gifford in front. Elder Gifford in front of his Apartment.

  1. All of these apartments are so nice. When I was serving a mission we lived in tiny apartments and if we were lucky we had a table with two chairs and beds a bookshelf and that was all. Home however is where you hang your hat. Elder Gifford's mom would be so proud of him, She taught that boy well.
