Today we enjoyed zone conference. This is President and Sister Sartori's last zone conference in Saratov since they go home in July. Lots of interesting direction given - all of it directed towards the younger missionaries, of course. We enjoy the spirit and support things as we can. I got to help with a "breakout" which is an activity that gets the missionaries up and moving. Here's a picture of a musical number - lots of new missionaries this cycle and lots of new sisters. Many more missionaries coming - 22 in July! There's also a picture of our district during our breakout activity...Elders Bateman, Treter, Wall and Malloy.
Sherry was asked to make a treat for them to eat after lunch. Lunch was KFC sandwiches and wraps - as usual - and Sherry made seven dozen muffins! It took her five hours Sunday afternoon since we can only bake twelve at a time in our small oven. She used the last of the pumpkin puree she made last Halloween from the jack o'lanterns we made at FHE! These were pumpkin/carrot/raisan/apple/walnut/chocolate muffins - and man, were they good! We used up all the odds and ends we had laying around - they were gone in ten minutes!
We left this morning at 07:45 and had a fun bus ride to the Zavodskoy building were conference was held. Got home at 18:00 after another fun bus ride and ten minutes later our first institute students showed up. Had class and fed them soup and by 21:00 they were gone. We're going to bed!
