Christmas Zone Conference

We traveled to Sendai on treacherous roads to attend the Christmas Zone Conference on December 16th.  It brought back memories as it was the first conference we attended when we first arrived one year ago.  I think we took the bus that time because of fear of the icy roads and snow.  We decided to brave it this year.






Our mission has had an influx of many new missionaries, including Sister Bean- Jaime Farnsworth's beautiful niece.  Jaime is in our ward at home. She is the one next to me.

Part of every zone meeting is language testing.  I'll tell you, Elder Hinton holds his own in the competitions.

Sisters from the stake served us a nice lunch.

And the elders and sisters reenacted the nativity.


Here come the shepherds and sheep.


And the wisemen.


One of the sheep forgot to remove his tail when it was over.
It was a nice conference.  The missionaries love to get together.  Merry Christmas!

Oh my goodness, those roads do look treacherous! I am glad that you made the trip safely. I am also proud of Ken for studying and brushing up on his Japanese - I am proud of both of you!

Your snowy roads look very familiar this year. Boise is in the midst of a very snowy December ;(so glad you made it safely to the Conference. Also glad you got to go and be together with all the other missionaries.That Sheep tail picture is hilarious.
