Elder Webb (aka) Wang Zhanglao 汪長老 returned home on October 25th, 2011. He served in the Taiwan Taichung Mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We welcomed him home with love and great joy in seeing him again. This poster was made by the ward primary. What a nice thing to do for Elder Webb.
Here was our first view of the returned missionary at the airport! He's got a look on his face of excitment, exhaustion, and simply trying to take in such a big change. We are happy to report that Ron is adjusting well and it is great fun to hear him speak Chinese.
Mom and I were able to be at the airport to see our favorite missionary return home.
Toby Rebb was able to come to the airport also. Toby arrived home from his mission from Brazil just the previous week. I think Toby and Ron will do a lot of hanging out... as pseudo companions.
Elder Webb chatting and taking in the moment.
Mom and the last of the Webb missionaries. Ron completes 5 Webb returned missionaries. From start to finish the Webb missionaries have served in Germany, Honduras, South Carolina, Mexico, and Taiwan. What an amazing blessing it has been for our family to have these missionaries serve the Lord for two years.
Suprise! Big J (officially Uncle J) "flew low" all the way from Texas to be here for Ron's arrival. Ron was very suprised to see him. He was there to send him off on his mission and he was there when he returned home.
Here's the returned missionary standing next to some neat Taiwan scrolls that he brought back. Ron is very fluent in both reading and speaking Chinese. It is very impressive to hear him speak such a difficult language. It is also very wonderful to hear about the people he taught and the things he learned on his mission. Welcome Home Elder Webb!!!
