We have had many rich and enlightening experiences while serving our mission in Hong Kong. But it is the people we have met that have made the greatest impact on us, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. From our fellow missionaries and co-ordinance workers in the temple, to the strangers we rub shoulders with daily during our commutes or ambles, there are always people who have a way of touching our hearts and uplifting our spirits.
Here are a few friends, co-workers, patrons, branch family, and, of course, missionaries who have brightened our days:
