Benjamin is now in Italy!

Dear friends and family of Anziano Benjamin Jolley,

Dean received a phone call from Sister Dunaway (his mission president's wife) telling him that Benjamin arrived safely in Milan, Italy.  She said that he was being assigned to be with Elder Jones in Alessandria, Italy which is 1 1/2 hours southwest of Milan.  When we talked to Benjamin from the airport, he told us that there were 20 elders and sisters going to Milan together!  Since it was such a large group (not enough room in the mission home) they were staying the first night in a hotel.  He said that after they dropped off their luggage, that they were going to visit the Duomo, which is a huge cathedral in Milan (3rd largest in the world), which seats 40,000 and has 3200 statues (I read that to Benjamin out of a guide book to Italy).  While visiting the Duomo, they were given the opportunity to visit with people there.

Benjamin's mission home address is:

Elder Benjamin Jolley
Italy Milan Mission
Via Gramsci, 13/4
20090 Opera MI
Italy

Thanks for all your love and support of Benjamin!  He told us how loved he feels from all of you!
