Missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon).
Praying. Teaching. Baptizing.
Serving the Lord and living life to the fullest.
Sleeping and eating at the home of a church member.
In a backyard casita they nicknamed the 'Shed.'

The Shed's 1 Year Anniversary!
One year ago today the shed opened,
and, within a few weeks,
ldseldershed blog launched.
Fast-forward a year and missionary life in the shed goes on.
Last night's exchange from Alluvial ward was Elder Roberts (r), of Salem IN.
He and Elder Carlson spent a few minutes of anniversary day on mormon.org.

During this week last year, there was room painting, carpet cleaning, curtain hanging and shelving installation.
The first Van Ness ward missionaries to call the shed home were Elders Wellbaum & Burstall.

After that, he hopes to get an engineering degree while serving another 7 years required military service.
