Zone Conference

 We enjoyed a day in Coca for the El Oriente zone conference. It's always a blessing to meet with President and Sister Román and the young missionaries. They inspire us, feed us well, and send us out to work. When you spend time near mission leaders, you realize how much time they spend working everyday.


These missionaries are serving in the hottest area in the mission. They have to find that extra bit of energy to walk out their doors. A few are new, but most are the best, most seasoned missionaries you've ever met. They work in incredibly humble conditions.


Learning balance and supporting each other are goals of each missionary. Hopefully these missionaries can rely on us, too. Their testimonies of Jesus Christ are uplifting, but I know some lack confidence. Part of the opportunity to serve a mission is gaining that strength to testify with confidence in every moment.


Our drive is about 1.5 hours back, but the rain caught us. It was pouring sheets of rain. In some ways this is a benefit because it chases the motorcycles off the road. It's really impossible to ride in a downpour.
