MISSION TOUR CONFERENCE 11-19-09

On Thurs. our mission tour with Elder Walker started. We held a 4 zone, or half mission, conference on Thurs and Friday. This first conference included the Centreville, Ashburn, McLean, and Oakton Zones. The missionaries were very excited to be taught by a General Authority. We started with a meeting of just Zone leaders and District Leaders for 45 min.
Elder Walker instructed them about being leaders and about supporting their leaders.
After the leadership meeting we went to the chapel where the rest of the missionaries were singing hymns. Lucky me, I was the first speaker and chose to speak on developing the Christlike attribute of Gratitude, a part of humility from PMG chapter 6. Pres. Albright then spoke and emphasized "the one" and spoke about the atonement. He is always inspiring. Sister Walker was next and very sweet. Elder Walker then spoke for an hour. He was an excellent speaker. Kept their attention and used a white board and got alot a interaction with the missionaries. Next, we went to the gym and had a wonderful lunch prepared by the Centreville stake RS. These pictures are of that luncheon.
