MLC Begins


MISSION LEADERSHIP COUNCIL

Our Zone Leaders traveled to the Mission Home to start our MLC on Monday night.  We start in the evening because a lot of our leaders have to travel long distances to arrive. Since some have been sitting on a bus, or car for several hours the Assistants planned a soccer game! Luckily they finished before it started pouring rain!  We had two guest speakers before dinner: Brother Rob Milne and Brother Brent Hyde. We were blessed to hear their wisdom and testimonies!

Our longer MLC begins early on Tuesday morning and lasts until afternoon. We have
a lot to cover, and looking forward to counseling together.

 After dinner we kick off our official MLC meeting, and hear a few words from 
President Thompson!

 Standing to sing the closing hymn.

 All of our Zone Leaders are powerful! Their goals are to return to their Zone's
to inspire obedience, and inspire to teach more effectively! So proud of them!

 Elder Abel

 Elders Hinnen and Burlaka

We started off counseling about various ways in which to improve individual Zone's and the
mission as a whole. These fantastic leaders decided that we could all step up a notch!
If anyone can inspire missionaries in their zones, it is these leaders! 

President Thompson introduced the theme: to be the light of Christ!

We will not have our regular Zone Conferences this month - instead, President Thompson
and I will be traveling four days with a General Authority and his wife across the mission.
We will visit four locations and combine some of our zones to make certain all missionaries 
will get a chance to participate. 

This next specialized Zone Conference will be great!
