Our favorite thing at the start of each month is ZONE LEADER COUNCIL.
All the Zone Leaders and the Assistants come to our home for the day to report, to learn, practice and plan for the upcoming month. It is a chance for them to share ideas, to receive instruction to help them in their stewardships and to socialize with other leaders.
One of the highlights is to have a meal together in the Mission Home. They get pretty excited about food in general, but love a home-cooked meal and always appreciate whatever I attempt to make.
Today we had 2 types of Oriental salads, rice, eggrolls, fruit and an ice cream sundae bar for dessert.
The weather was nice enough to sit outside and not get too hot...probably the last time for the summer they will want to be outside...I am guessing.
They enjoyed the Fortune Cookies and we had to smile at some of the fortunes...Some were uncannily TRUE!
Elders Barrett and Bird demonstrate a teaching method before we had the elders practice. They plan and prepare with us for these meetings and bring the Spirit into whatever they are in charge of teaching!
We have two zone leaders who will be leaving the mission next transfer: Elders Catlett and Blackhurst. Both will be sorely missed. They have been dedicated leaders and friends to the mission. They will be successful in whatever they attempt next in life!
Front: Elders Brame, J. Nelson, M. Young, A. Johnson, Barrett, Bird, Sis. & Pres. Taylor.
Middle/Back: Elders Hampton, Fluckiger, Blackhurst, Brown, Griessman, Freeman, Stephens, D. Wood, Bush, Alvis, Jeffs, McBride, Pollmeier, Condie, Catlett, McCauley and Martin.
