Suriname in October
We had a great zone conference in Suriname today for the Suriname and French Guiana missionaries. It is the only one we will have without Elder Vinas from the area presidency so we kept it kind of informal.
First we had a 'best practices' session where each companionship shared one thing that is working well. It was fascinating - I learned so much!
Then we discussed their study of the Atonement in the Book of Mormon
A special moment was seeing Larry Roseval open his mission call. He has been attending zone conferences in Suriname for quite a while in preparation for his mission.
He is called to serve in the Puerto Rico San Juan West Mission, Spanish speaking!
Here are the prospective missionaries of Suriname
Yves Verwey, just to the left of Larry, already has his call to the Belgium Brussels Mission, Mandarin speaking.
Here they are - the Elders of Suriname and French Guiana
French Elders Anihia, Tevaro, Garrett, and Doumbia
Elders Baantjer, Tholen, and Harding
Elders Swart, Holtz, Riding and Croese
Elders Ash, Muse, and Shakespear
Elders Pence, Kinghorn, Schroath, and Koenen
Elders Macintosh and Lines (French) and Elders Sorber and Jestice (Suriname Zone Leaders)
Prospective missionaries
Elder (I mean brother) Dinge who is the newest West Indies returned missionary!
Lunch time!
