March Zone Conferences

Zone Conferences were on March 12-14. The Cauayan Mission is the largest mission in the Philippines, area wise. Traveling from the north to the south of the mission can take eight hours. Zone Conferences are divided up into three areas so the missionaries do not have to spend a whole day traveling. This time, Pres. and Sis Hiatt were able to attend. They train and teach the Elders and Sisters. The senior couples help by bringing the missionaries supplies, housing needs, and mail. We also set up for the catered lunch. 

I bring the sewing machine from the mission home and try to do any mending the missionaries need. In the last two months, I've repaired 48 pairs of pants (hems, ripped seams, tears from tricycles barbed-wire fences, pockets and belt loops), added chest pockets to two white shirts, narrowed down nine ties, mended three shoulder bags, and re-enforced button holes and buttons. 

It sure is fun to see the missionaries, especially now that we are getting to know them more.

Seeing Sam's picture, Elder Leausa said he was more handsome. Sam said, "He's dreaming".
