Zone Conference

We had a wonderful zone conference with Area Authority Stephen Kerr and his wife and Pres. Hill and his wife.  Elder Kerr is from Scotland and speaks with a very heavy accent.  I had to listen carefully to understand everything he said.  He has a strong spirit and we were all thrilled to learn from him.  We were able to go for dinner with them all in Bucharest and then we stayed over night at the mission home because it was late.

His wife is a convert and she shared her conversion story which was so inspiring and motivating for the missionaries.  She felt the spirit of the missionaries long before they ever taught her.  She kept running into them everywhere she went.  They have three sons and a daughter, their sons have served missions in Russia, Norway and right now their last son serves in New Zealand.  A very mission minded family. 

It is fun for the missionaries to get together and see each other and receive strength and support.  It was a great two days.
