Our final Zone Conference of our Mission here in Sweden

Wednesday, May 31, 2017! 

We drove to the Handen Chapel to meet with the Stockholm South Zone and Sodertalje Zone.  Again, early morning in order to prepare the chapel and cultural hall for the festivities.

Our assistants, Elder Jensen and Elder Jamsa did another outstanding job of teaching our missionaries.  These assistants have been so solid and and have so much love for the Lord and the missionaries who serve here in Sweden.  We truly have been blessed by the Lord to have been able to associate with such incredible young people over the last three years.  Our lives have been changed for the better because of this wonderful blessing and opportunity the Lord entrusted us with.

Elder Erdman and Elder Holt provided the music for our conference, and as has been the case for three years, these young people are blessed with incredible talent.

What can I say?  Sister Beckstrand once again provided the spirit and motivation to attend the temple on a regular basis.  As President over this mission for the last three years, I cannot believe how blessed I have been to have such a loving, dedicated, faithful companion.  She has never faltered in her assignment and has loved each of these 400+ missionaries over the past three years.  I am so fortunate to have her in my life and look forward to eternity with her by my side.  I love her with all of my heart!!!!

 Well, this completes the final round of Zone Conferences for President and Sister Beckstrand.  The next conferences will be under the direction of President and Sister Youngberg.  A Big Thank You to all who have been involved with helping us with this monumental assignment over the past three years.  Our love to you all!
