Elder Nolan Attended the Preston Missionary Training Center which stands in the grounds of the Preston England Temple. This MTC provides training for missionaries who will be serving throughout Europe. Typically a missionary receives just under 2 weeks intense training before departing to their assigned mission.
The following photographs are a visual record of the day that Elder Nolan arrived at the MTC. (sorry there's a lot of Elder Nolan!!)
Always being daft , even on the way to the MTC.

Elder Nolan and Elder Suriyachan from Thailand outside the Preston England MTC.
Elder Suriyachan left the MTC to serve in Elder Nolan's home mission EMM and met his Mum at a transfer meeting. Elder Suriyachan's opening line was 'Are you Elder Nolan's mum?'
It's funny that we are all doing the same finger pointy thing !!!
Elder Nolan left the MTC to go to the London North Ward. His first companion will be Elder Hein.
