Suriname Zone Conference



We had zone conference today and I think we wore the Elders out!

But it was great.

We talked and talked about commitments, dispensations, apostasy, Joseph Smith, and the Book of Mormon from 8:30 AM until lunch at 1:30 and then President Robison took the Elders aside and talked some more.

They are great young men - so dedicated and obedient.

I just know the work in Suriname is going to explode. They are doing well now but there is incredible potential there for building the church and moving towards having a stake.

Here are a few pictures (it may seem like all I take pictures of is food - but that is when I have a break and can grab my camera!):

This is the most fantastic lunch in all the mission - Indonesian food made by the Salijos. These are just the starters!



The first time I has zone conference lunch in Suriname I made the mistake of thinking the starters were the entire meal. Now I know there is always something wonderful to follow. This time we had Saoto Soup





















The missionaries love it!
