MLC - April 2018

"We must protect the culture" - Elder Craig A. Cardon

We were fortunate to have Elder Craig A. Cardon attend Missionary Leadership Council. We discussed about the mission culture. The Australia Brisbane Mission has a culture of Exact Obedience. Elder Cardon explained that the mission culture starts with the leaders and then works its way out to the whole mission. They set the example.
We also learned the process of how we are assigned to a specific mission by revelation from God, to the Quorum of the Twelve. That same revelation is in use when President McSwain prays to know what areas to send missionaries within the mission. 

ABM Mission Tour with Elder Craig A. Cardon of the Seventy

We were very lucky to have Elder Craig A. Cardon come to our mission to share an inspired message about 'Who We Are' as missionaries, and also more detail about the changes in the church announced at General Conference. Because of our missionaries diligent preparation on studying Chapter 4 of Preach My Gospel, everyone was able to have their questions that they wrote down prior to the conference, answered.

Zone Conferences February 2018

This transfer's zone conferences were inspiring to say the least. The trainings given were as spiritual as they get. There were some fantastic musical items as well. President McSwain gave excellent trainings on the role of prophets and apostles, and how they are markers of the true church of Jesus Christ. He also trained the missionaries on solemn assemblies, which we'll have the opportunity of participating in this year. Elder Pugsley trained on obedience, and Elder Hymas trained on the Book of Mormon. We also viewed the worldwide missionary broadcast focusing on the Book of Mormon. It was a great time to be edified and strengthened in doctrinal knowledge and well as recomitting to serve faithfully and honorably. Many thanks to all who made these zone conferences amazing!
