This past week was filled with great association with fellow missionaries. Mid-week was Mission Leadership Council, where mission leaders, from throughout the mission, met in Zagreb for instruction and to council together.
Thursday and Friday we stayed in Zagreb for the Sister Missionary Conference.
Thursday afternoon was filled with activities that strengthened relationships and allowed us to get better acquainted. We got to try some folk dancing, speed friendship and 'guess that baby'.
Our first presentation was on the Parable of the 10 Virgins presented by Sister Cordray. We had a discussion and learning about the priesthood by President Cordray. In the afternoon there were 13 vignettes about heroic women; from the Bible, church and family history. It was fun a to discover unknown cousins using "relatives near me" function of Family Tree. A beautiful special musical piece by Sisters Rolfe, Unsworth and Gardner and time for personal reflections made it a rich spiritual experience.

Another treat of the Sister's Conference was that the Elders did the cooking, headed up by Elder's Throndsen and Connors. Elders Parkinson and Goodrich had "dough detail", making naan and Elder Reed was the "johnny on the spot" support. Thanks, Elders, it was DELICIOUS!
A HUGE Thank you to President and Sister Cordray and to all the missionaries who made it happen!
