The combined Warsaw l and ll District choir provided a wonderful musical number. Sisters Allen and Hulme, Elders Kalinowski, Davis, Hillyard, Augustyn, Lewis and Sorn. They sang one of those Hymns that you wished everyone in Warsaw could have heard.
In one of the workshops, Elder Fritzsch is demonstrating to President and Elder Hancock how to extend an invitation to follow Christ and be baptized.
Sisters Leppanen, Marshall, Bautner, Hulme, Steadman and Allen.
Sisters Hulme and Bautner. We will miss these great Sister Missionaries when they depart for home in 3 weeks. They have served their very best.
LUNCH TIME!!! Always a favorite time of the day.... Notice how the Elders in the Poland Warsaw Mission are real gentlemen and let the Sisters go first! (They were reminded!)
Then it was an all-out-feeding-frenzy...
...And they just kept coming! It's a miracle how much a little paper plate can hold!
When we have the Zone Conference lunches, yogurt is usually served. When you buy one of the "flats" of yogurt, there are many flavors but generally only two Peach cups of yogurt. Elder Garrett takes care of President and himself by grabbing the 'peach' yogurts for the two of them. It's their favorite. Thank you Elder Garrett!
The special Birthday Group- Elders Fritzsch, Augustyn, Sisters Allen and Austin.
The Poland Warsaw Mission Presidency- Presidents Nielson, Rzeczycki and Wencel. A big 'Thanks' to these counselors for coming to this conference. Great men who do much for the church in this country.
Special thanks to the Warsaw Zone Leaders, Elders Augustyn and Hillyard. Not only did they arrange for the food and saved the Mission a lot of money...the tables were decorated very nicely and everything arranged with style and taste. We think that Elder Augustyn could go into catering and do very well...

The Zone Conferences are completed and again we see what great missionaries we have in Poland. They strive each day to be the best they can become. We watch them and are so grateful to be around them. We love them!

Afterwards there were more meetings and a training broadcast from Salt Lake. Then home to get ready for a wedding tomorrow and travel to Krakow for a fireside and Branch Conference on Sunday. There is hardly time to breathe some days!
