I was just wondering if somebody knew how President Copeland and missionaries that served in his mission. I served there from March 1988 to March 1990. I see that the Adriano family are listed on this site. Maybe one of you could tell me how some of the portuguese Elders from our mission are doing as well. I haven't been keeping in touch with anybody and wondered how they are doing. Is there going to be a Mission reunion any time soon? You can either post here or send me an email at samjcollett@cs.com. Thanks, Sam Collett

I understand that President Copeland is doing well and actually living in Portugal. While serving as Mission President he fell in love with the mission home maid and they began a happy affair. The Brethren weren't impressed with this happy bliss so he got excommunicated after his mission when they found out.

Anyone have any other news about the alumni from this mission? I served from May 88 until November 89.
