ZONE CONFERENCE- MCLEAN & OAKTON 5-2010

We had a wonderful Zone Conference with the Mclean and Oakton Zones. It was held on Monday, May 10, 2010. Great leaders and great missionaries. The zone leaders are Elders Johnson and Jeppesen in the Oakton Zone and Sackett and Jones in the Mclean zone. Elders Johnson and Jeppesen gave a great presentation on "qualifications for having the Companionship of the Holy Ghost by having the missionaries turn to D&C 121 and listening for the Do's and Don'ts-very effective. Elder Barrett and Sis. Banks gave talks on the mission and power of the Holy Ghost. Then Elders Sackett and Jones gave a presentation on Effectively preparing a member for an investigator lesson and involved the group in discussion. We had a beautiful musical number by Elders McGill, Johnson, Sackett, and Searcy. It never fails to amaze me how these missionaries put together incredible numbers so quickly and sound great. The AP's skill practice was beautiful, very spiritual and touching. It helped us all learn the importance of listening to investigators and letting the spirit help you discover their needs.
