Monday Motivational

Christmas Conference #2

Our second 1/2 Mission Conference was held in Fort Walton for our Mobile, Pensacola, and Fort Walton Zones. More beautiful voices and musical gifts to share in our Christmas program, then a delicious lunch provided by the Fort Walton Stake Relief Society, and "Minute to Win it" games. Love our Missionaries!!
Victory won for the Mobile Zone, thanks to Elder Sellers! Champions!

Christmas Conference #1

We held our annual Christmas Conference in Tallahassee this week for our Tally 1, Tally 2, Panama City, and Dothan Zones. We had such a wonderful time sharing the spirit of Christmas as Missionaries shared their musical talents in our "Missionary Christmas" program.
Marvin Goldstein (world renowned pianist) accompanied Elder Bradford, along with Sister Lee in a musical number. He then sat with Elder Johnson as they played an impromptu hymn.
President felt a little "impromptu" as well while we were setting up for our 1/2 Mission picture! He decided we should sing! Then on to the games!
And Sister Lee and I doing the "Brewer". The laughter and faces of the Missionaries in the background tell it all!
