President Peterson discussed the state of the union (mission) and missionaries shared miracles. After a 10 minute break Sister Peterson trained on respect and courtesy.
President Peterson then trained on member involvement and invited President Gonzalez ( newly called stake president of the Houston West Stake) to share thoughts and ideas of members involved with missionaries.
Missionaries were invited to share thoughts on how they are preparing for our upcoming general conference in April.
After lunch the assistants Elder Tebbs and Elder Sevy trained on repentance and baptizing converts.
We then had an hour of zone breakouts to discuss and plan what they had learned from zone conference.
We enjoyed departing testimonies each day and closing remarks from President Peterson

Assistants to President Peterson
The assistants to President Peterson are 2 elders he prayerfully calls to assist him. They are not office elders, although they are often seen in the office using the computer and helping President Peterson with transfers which occur each 6 weeks, planning agendas for MLC and zone conferences along with training in these meetings. They also have an area they serve in finding and teaching people. They go on exchanges with zone leaders and help train them. These are just a few of the things they do! We are grateful to them for their example of being a disciple of Jesus Christ.

Houston Temple
We always take the new missionaries to see the Houston Temple. We talk of how we help people we teach to have the Temple as their goal, to learn how to do family history work and to come to the Temple for themselves and their family. We are very blessed to have the Temple close by in our mission.
