Another April Zone Conference in Georgetown

Linden's second zone conference was in April. We took our missionaries to Georgetown for the day and even found room for Mark Rodney and Richie Ramdeholl. We traveled over on Monday - our P-day - so the missionaries could do their weekly grocer shopping, then went on splits with the Georgetown missionaries. On our way, we stopped long enough to take this picture! It depicts our goals and the mood of the trip! Sister DeFreitas and Sister Girdharry stayed at the mission office home and were ready to load into the truck early on June 27, 2010 to head to zone conference.

We met at the LaGrange Chapel and went right to work. President Gamiette has lots to offer us and we are all trying hard to learn to become better at teaching the gospel.  President Ricks talked about Prayer being our spiritual tool.  Elder Vi, the district leader, was chosen to conduct the meeting. AP's Elder Damm and Elder Scott, the Assistants to the President, were also called upon to teach.  This was Elder Damm's first conference.

Our new "to be" missionaries were excited about their future.  Helping Brother Moore, Brother Richie Ramdeholl, ElderRyan Ramdeholl, and Mark Rodney in their mission preparations has been one of the highlights of our mission.

Another Guyana Zone Conference



April 2, 2010 took us from Linden to the zone conference in Georgetown. This was General Conference weekend so it was a busy one. We met at the LaGrange Church building where Elders Barton and Scott, President and Sister Gamiette are ready to start. President Gamiette is teaching us all how to become master teachers. The Benns are the new Senior Couple that will work in the office in Georgetown; they are getting ready to go the MTC in the Dominican Republic; they are shown here with Elder Collins and Sister Gamiette. Elder and Sister Ricks are a great asset to our Guyana Area; he is the first counselor in the Mission Presidency.
