Arrival in Albania
Dear Family and Friends, The Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Korçë We have arrived in the country of Albania, in the beautiful city of Korçë—actually we arrived almost 4 weeks ago! We feel like we are in the most charming, wonderful place in the mission—although maybe that isn’t a fair assessment because we haven’t seen hardly anything yet. We’re going to try and catch up from the beginning, and then try to stay current. We entered the MTC on September 11th. My sister Sherri, and her husband Rick, who live in Vineyard, invited us to stay with them the night before, and leave massive amounts of luggage at their home. They are such incredible hosts, making us feel wanted and welcome. Sherri prepared delicious meals, and they are always ready to play fun games, or simply talk. We were also able to see my AZ sister Heidi, her husband Jon, and daughter Londyn for a few minutes while they were visiting their college kids, but we didn't get a picture.
