Arizona Tucson Mission

Tucson Rodeo Parade: Mormon Battalion & ATM Missionaries

February 21, 2019

President Browning;

Thank you so much for allowing some of our great Tucson missionaries to participate in the Rodeo Parade this morning. I’m glad the weather held out and they didn’t get drenched! From all accounts, they seemed to enjoy themselves and there couldn’t have been any better representatives of the original Mormon Battalion.

Attached are some pictures you might enjoy. What is not shown in the pictures is a wagon drawn by two horses and carrying the Tucson Mormon Battalion Brass Band playing period music all along the route. Also, there were two of the elders assigned to walk alongside the horses for safety sake.

Thanks again for providing these fine young men!

All Things Cactus

Even though one could argue these pictures look like postcard or wall calendar pictures, all of these photographs were personally taken by the Browning’s. We love this gorgeous and unique Sonoran Desert!

Oops! How did this sweet cactus get in here? (President and Sister’s Browning’s grand daughter cactus!)

Mission Conference January 25, 2019

We had special visitors to Tucson and to the whole entire mission on January 25, 2019. EXCITING!! All of our missionaries were gathered together, in one place, at the same time. Soooo cool!!

Our special guests were: President M. Russell Ballard, President Lynn G. Robbins, Elder Richard N. Holzapfel, Elder Raymond Heyman, & Sister Diane Heyman.

(Thank you to Brother Brentyn & Sister Samantha Nymeyer for most of these photos. They are wonderful!!)
