VANNES FRANCE


Joe got transferred this week~
His new address is:
Elder Ford
Les Missionaires
49, Rue des 4 Frères Créach
56000, VANNES
France
(the picture above is Sister Rachel Kagwe - she was Baptized by Elder Maxfield - she is an African woman from Kenya~)

The area he had been in was great and he really loved being in NANTES ~
He has been with 3 other missionaries ~ and really had no complaints - he especially enjoyed and really loved his companion, Elder Maxfield. (Elder Maxfield went home this week).

But, like all good things - they do come to an end - and Joe was transferred.
TO VANNES - a city by the SEA!! (No temptation for Joe)
He just wrote and said "I will need some extra money for a wetsuit." hmmmmmm.......
I think he was kidding.....
So, a little about Vannes:
VANNES is a market town and linked to the ocean. It is right next to the Gulf of Morbihan, which boasts of getting more that 2,000 hours of sunshine per year.
You can get to Paris in 3 hours by high speed train.

Right before leaving NANTES they set another baptism date for June 26th and he won't be able to return for that. But he has high hopes for his new area.
We are so proud of Elder Ford -
