JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Many missionaries in the South Africa Johannesburg Mission will be wearing new white shirts and ties, thanks to the Lincoln Ward, Layton Utah Layton Hills Stake. At a recent ward dinner, members donated some 30 white shirts and a suitcase full of neckties, which were delivered to Johannesburg Mission President James W. Fitch and his wife, Sister Sheron Fitch, during an open house for a new missionary training center in South Africa on July 19.
"We often have missionaries arrive from African countries who lack the means to be able to provide their own mission clothing," Sister Fitch said. "What a blessing this will be for them, and many thanks to those generous people who thought of us and the needs we have here."
