DeeAnn and Bob Buchanan ( last night as NY Manhattan Temple Missionaries)
On our "memorable Temple 'field trip' to Orlando and Ft. Lauderdale Temples in Florida" during our "Winter Maintenance break" in Jan 2017
Our "Farewell Dinner/FHE" Jan 2017
Front row L-R: Pres & Sis Bench, Sis Kathy Thompson, Sis DeeAnn & Bro Bob Buchanan, Pres & Sis Bean

We " knocked" but "No one was Home"--the😢😢 day the Buchanans left for Home!
Now into this same Apartment 7 E------
WE SAY "Welcome Aboard" to Elder Ralph and Sister Holly Young, who have arrived (Feb 17, 2017) and literally 'hit the ground running' as they were set apart as Ordinance Workers on Sat morning (Feb 18th) and went right to work , amidst being Trained, on one of the busiest Saturdays the Temple has been in quite awhile. And because Monday, Feb 20th, was a Federal holiday (President's Day) the Temple was open for Patrons from 8:30 am to 1200 noon--and it was very busy!!
Later that evening--in Apt 4B (the Benches') the Temple Presc' and all Full-time Temple missionaries gathered for a lovely dinner and some training from our Presc'. It was a very wonderful evening!!
"Welcome Evening" for the Youngs
Front row L-R: Pres & Sis Nixon, Pres & Sis Bench, Pres & Sis Bean
Back row L-R: Kent & Barbara Heideman, Mar Jean & Paul Lewis, Carol & Ron (that's us), Holly &Ralph Young ( newest Missionaries), De'Ette & Tim McKenna, Kathy Nabors, Elaine & Richard Holloway, and Melba & Terry Grimley (our Photographer, who manages to "get in the pic" with a timmer, every time!!) such talent!!
We are now only 'missing' our new Senior Sister Missionary, Sister Miyashiro, who is one-Minh delayed due to family matters. We will welcome her when she comes!!
And so the "Work" in the New York Manhattan Temple moves and continues on!!
