Assorted photographs from the Arizona Holbrook (Navajo) Mission
March 1978 to March 1980

My name is Marcus Bond and I served in the Arizona Holbrook (Navajo) Mission from March, 1978-March, 1980.  Although I served most of my mission under President Don Hunsaker, I was in the last group of "greenies" to arrive in the field under President Lee.  So I guess I can formally count myself among the "Lee" missionaries.  I have been digging through some of my old mission pictures and thought some of you might enjoy seeing ourselves and our colleagues as we were 20+ years ago.  I will be adding new pictures here as I get time to scan them in or convert slides to photos, so keep checking back.  The first pictures come from some old snapshots that have become faded, scratched, or stained over time.  I have tried to Photoshop them a bit, and it shows.  I have just had some old slides converted to prints and hope to start scanning those in soon.  The slides seemed to have survived a little better, so keep checking back.  I will start by putting up mostly pictures of missionaries, but will throw in a few landscape shots as well.  Select the links below to view pictures from each of my areas.
