June: A Month of Miracles, Transfers, Zone Conference, MLC, New Leader Training, 8 Week Training, Porque Yo Creo, Faith Meets Family and the Temple

The month of June began with baptisms and seeing many missionaries return to Texas for visits, to see people they taught get baptized and enter the Temple for their endowment.  We loved having the returned missionaries, Sister Kay, Sister Owen, Hermana Siri and Elder Robison over to our mission home for meals along with many of their family members.  Transfers were also held from June 11-13.  We said goodbye to many of our wonderful missionaries who served so faithfully and we commented that the Elders who were returning home had come to the mission a week before President Peterson and I arrived and all the sisters of course had been with us their entire mission.  We continue to feel close to our missionaries and a little sad seeing them return home! Soon that sadness is replaced with happiness at welcoming new missionaries to the mission.
June 11 was new leader training for all newly called district, zone and sister training leaders, followed by MLC.
June 19 was 8 week training, all missionaries who have been out for 8 weeks along with their companions get together for training and go over their outlines of principles from Preach My Gospel and role play.
June 20 began zone conference, we now have 4 days of zone conference with smaller numbers of missionaries attending each conference.
June 23 was Porque Yo Creo devotional held each year in Spanish.
Friday June 28 Faith Meets Family at the Houston temple.
