Going it Alone--Our First Career Training Group

These are the 10 departing missionaries that we spent 3 days with during our Career Resource/Self Employment training. It was an even mix of 4 Elders and 1 Sister from each mission. They were a sharp group. On Monday, we paired them with a mentor from their chosen profession so they can get more information about how to get into their desired fields of employment. Sister Squires had completed some schooling in fashion design, and her mentor (Sister Ogege) hired her on the spot. We felt like maybe we had helped her somewhat, and Sister Squires was on cloud nine.
