Walking and Biking

Our missionaries are now walking or biking instead of driving!


After much deliberation with security officers and church leaders, it is deemed more safe for missionaries to be on foot or to bike. Safety is first and foremost for our missionaries.

Missionaries will also take public transportation to get to longer distances.

Another change is the missionary schedule. Due to our missionaries walking or biking now, morning has become a prime proselyting time. After the first three weeks, our missionaries report that morning is surprisingly a really good time to teach!  

So proud of all of these wonderful young men!

 Some of our Elders will be riding bikes! Those areas are still to be announced!

Because the Elders are no longer using cars, President will now have to go to each of their boardings (or see them at Zone Conferences) to conduct Mission President Interviews! Scheduling the logistics for these has become daunting, because President doesn't want to interfere with their appointments. As a consequence, President Thompson caters to their schedules and is sometimes going very early in the morning, or later at night, and oftentimes both. I'm glad he has a lot of stamina!!!
