West Indies Mission: Hard Working MIssionaries

We have frozen this blog as a historical, yet informational view at what life is like in the West Indies Mission for all those called to serve. This blog was designed for the families and friends of those missionaries serving in the West Indies Mission from July 2006 to July 2009. Every six weeks, photos taken at zone conference as well as a new slide show including every person baptized were posted on the blog. All of the slide shows are also available on our You Tube channel. The current West Indies Mission blog can be found here. Posts on our missionary experience can be found here and earlier. And finally, if you are a returned missionary who served in the West Indies, there is a current blog for you. Click here or visit westindiesrm@blogspot.com

Hard Working MIssionaries

They get up at 6:30, dress, eat, study for two hours (three - if learning a language) out the door at 9:30 (10:30 for language) - and then work with all their heart, might, mind and strength until 9:00 or 9:30 (with a break for lunch). Then plan, eat, and to bed.

That's a typical West Indies missionary day.

Do they get tired?

Of course

Do they mind?

No - because this is the sweetest work in the world.

Here are a few glimpses of their more 'worn out' moments
