Here are some photos of our recent Zone Visit. The bottom picture is him with his wife. There names are Brother Edward Bunn and Sister Sara Bunn. We actually were able to enjoy them 2 years ago when we were in Ecuador. Except it was all in spansih. This time he was able to give the same talks because this region hasn't heard them before...so I totally used my notes from Ecuador and followed along. Well to explain a little about a zone visit it is like a C.O. visit for the Branch. He visits with all the different departments and gives a little talk to them and he has a meeting with all the missionaries. There is a pictures below of the missionaries here in Liberia. During the visit we have a missionary dinner. Its super special in that the branch goes all out for them. We had a very nice meal and were able to enjoy listening to some of the experiences of how they became missionaries. Then on Sunday there is a big meeting with all the congregation here in Monrovia. The picture below shows you where we had it and how many are there. The funny thing is that in the country of Liberia we have about 5500 publishers, at this meeting we had an attendance of 8225. Good turn out. There is another picture below of some Brothers standing out in a field relieving themselves...but it wasn't just them.....all were making use of the outdoors. Then there is a piture of me and a sister named Julie. Her and her husband have been here for 4 months. She works in the kitchen and her husband does plaster. Well thats about it for the Zone visit.
