These new Zuster missionaries arrived on November 15th,  They are standing in front of the "I Am sterdam" sign at the airport.  They come with fired up spirits and great Dutch!  (thanks to their trainer at the MTC in Provo, Zuster Hansen)

They are clockwise from the top left:  Zuster Perkinson, Zuster Wolverton, Zuster Weber, and Zuster Lane.

A special moment for one of our new members of this year . . . Anya Reber!  
She was able to take her fathers name to the temple to be baptized by Bishop Swart.  
She also had a lot of family names to be baptized and Sjaak van den Ban came, excited 
to do the baptisms for them.  Sjaak has been recently baptized and was eager to serve.  
He is in the pink sweater.

Our new senior couple, the Fletcher's with their daughter Esther will be serving

Pictures from the Temple Zone Conferences held over 3 days (November 8, 9, & 10th).  We enjoyed a session in the Temple each day and most missionaries took a family name through for their session. Elder and mostly Zuster Reeves helped many missionaries find a name on Family Search. A lot of work was done and many found relatives from the countries of Belgium and the Netherlands.  
This was a very choice and special time for everyone.
