Palmira and Paraíso Zones...Together A.I.Ming for success...

I must admit that I felt very much surrounded by Priesthood in this zone conference.
(Now just maybe you can appreciate why I take pictures with the sisters when I am with them.)
I love these young missionaries...because they love me.
We had a wonderful zone conference with all 25 of them!

them about a missionary who has initiative.
It is fun to see their problem solving skills and how
they apply this to their missionary work.

                                     M...iembros  (members)
We are AIMing to focus our missionaries on higher levels
of spiritual progress and success.

This round of zone conference we have focused on 3 areas...
1.  Charity,  2.  Initiative,  3.  Working with members

We have learned that Charity is the sign of a true disciple.
We have learned that Charity casts out fears.
We have learned that Charity only comes as we pray, repent, and receive the Holy Ghost.
We have learned that Charity must start in our companionships!

We have learned that our own beliefs can limit our actions.
We have learned that we don't have to be commanded in all things.
We have learned that THE POWER is in us to do good.

We have learned that with the help of the members we meet the needs of our investigators and have more success in missionary work.

and we have learned MUCH, MUCH, more!

We will be on the road for the next two weeks doing zone conferences.
We started in Popayán!
