Zone Conference - Again So Soon?


The Denmark Copenhagen Mission has 2 Zones in Denmark and one in Iceland. We just had our Zone Conference this last Saturday as noted in an earlier post. Denmark combined their two Zone Conferences this month so they could go to the Temple together. It was then decided to include the Iceland Zone in their meeting via SKYPE. It was a great conference even though there were some technical problems. The Assistants to the President, the Zone Leaders and two sisters taught great lessons and there was two beautiful musical numbers (at least we think so as the sound was extremely poor for those). President and Sister Olauson also spoke along with his counselor and his wife. During lunch the Elders talked to each other over Skype renewing friendships they had developed in the MTC. It was a great day for learning how to be better missionaries and understanding our roll in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ here in Iceland and Denmark. Elder Fillmore was called on to give a 5 minute talk and he gave a very spiritual message. The picture is our Assistant Elder DeCelle who had to make many trips to the PC to send messages regarding challenges with SKYPE. Remarks from the audience could not be heard so one of the Office Elders did a lot of typing which we appreciated.
