A Mission Tour

As of last July, missions throughout the world are run differently than ever before. Zone Conferences that were held every 6 weeks are now quarterly. President's interviews of every missionary that was done every six weeks are also quarterly. That is why you don't see as many pictures of zone conferences on the blog.

March is the month for the president to do interviews. He decided to visit each missionary in their apartment to do the interview. That is good for many reasons...the best being the apartments got cleaned!

We decided to take a picture of every missionary in front of their apartment so watch the blog throughout the month of March. Every missionary will be seen at some time.

The past 2 days were spent in Georgia visiting and interviewing the Kingsland Zone. It was so fun to see the missionaries in their 'natural habitat'. The man-eating gnats are out in Georgia. They literally take chucks of skin off. It's a constant swatting fight. Many arms and necks are covered in scabs. Oh, the fun of springtime in the south.
