We have Arrived!


We left with 3 other missionary couples from the SLC airport Tuesday morning, Aug. 17 to fly to NY. After changing planes we flew through a shortened night nonstop to Kyiv arriving Wednesday morning, Aug. 18. Our temple President Galbraith (on the left in the gray suit) met us at the airport and drove us to our new home on the temple site in Kyiv.





This is how close our apartment building (on the left) is to the temple! We are on the second floor and on this side so our windows look out to the temple--the first thing we see in the morning and the last at night! The exterior lights on the temple do not stay on all night but we have drapes we can pull that shut out light.
