                                     Zone Conference - Thursday, August 13, 2015


         President Hiatt setting an example for everyone, bravely getting his flu shot!





      Some Elders....like Elder Honda...loved to be dramatic, but when I asked them to tell me what their pain level was when getting the shot, most told me between 0-2 on a pain scale of 0 meaning none at all and 10 meaning  awful pain....

                            Elder Ashton smiled through the whole thing.  :)

Sister Iler did a wonderful job teaching a class on using the Adjusting to Missionary Life Booklet.  She juggled teaching and practicing while the missionaries were being taken to get their shots....and chocolate.  :)  She is such an amazing sister.  We are going to miss her so much!

            The classes were a combination of learning and practicing and repracticing.





  One of our best classes was taught by money management wizard, Elder Whittle.

Elder Burgos and Elder Zook taught us how to help our investigators do their family history.
                                        Teaching about different emotional zones.....

                                 Palawan Zone Conference in  Puerto Princesa

                   Doing Try-outs for the Manila Mission Christmas Choir....

  President Hiatt, Elder Boshard, Elder Wilson and Elder Hadley returning to Manila



President ad Sister Hiatt, two VERY faithful "senior" missionaries who work harder and longer than most of the rest of us put together!  They will be leaving us soon, and it's hard to imagine the mission without them.  They are leaving shoes that will be hard to fill.  But they have some good friends, the Wolcotts, who will be replacing them, and we look forward to their many wonderful contributions as well!  Senior Missionaries ARE THE BEST!!!!  Everyone should try it!  :)
