In October 2010, we had a special visit in our Area (South America South), at a "Mission President´s Seminar", from Elder Neil L. Andersen, and his wife Kathy, pictured here with our Area Presidency and their wives.
While he was visiting us, Elder Andersen taught us many beautiful things. He also said to us:
"You (are) guardians for some of the best young men and women born into mortality. For a period of time, their parents and the Lord give them to your care. They come as tender plants, carefully placed in the rich soil of the mission field. A mission is a near perfect environment for a missionary´s understanding of the Atonement of Jesus Christ to grow and mature, and for this spiritual knowledge to blosson into spiritual power."
We are humbled that the Lord has entrusted us with our current responsibility to care for and teach missionaries.
We can attest that our spiritual growth is progressing also, as we continue to work alongside our wonderful missionaries.
We appreciate your visit and your teachings Elder and Sister Andersen. We feel strengthened, enthused and inspired after being with you both.
