Mission Presidents Seminar Victoria Falls







Southeast Africa Area Presidency Mission Presidents & Wives

We had the pleasure of attending this years mission presidents seminar at Victoria Falls. I have never met a more dedicated, hard working, loving bunch of people. These are the people that are taking care of our missionaries in south east Africa. They are on call 24/7 . Most of the missions have between 80 and 200 missionaries. How would you like to inherit that may teenagers!

This is 4 days when the mission presidents and their wives get together for meetings (2 days) and two days of much needed rest and relaxation


Most talked on their phone
Pres. Christensen needed a nap!
We saw some great animals!




Best of all we had a great time with these 11 Mission Presidents and their wives. We had to say our tearful Good-byes to Pres. and Sister Gaya -- Madagacar Pres. and Sister Packard--Moszambique , Pres. and Sister Bester--Zimbabwe and last but not least Pres. and Sister Livingstone --Congo who have finished their 3 years. They will all be returning home to their family and friends. You have done a great job and we well miss you!
