On Pohnpei, in 2004, there was a north zone and a south zone.
Missions are broken down into small zones, smaller districts and smallest areas.
Each companionship is assigned to an area.
A district is comprised of several areas, headed by a chosen missionary district leader.
A zone is made up of a few districts, headed by a companionship of zone leaders.
Both zones attended the same zone conference.
In the next few posts I'll share more of the notes that I took at this zone conference.
***June 28, 2004 JOURNAL: Zone Conference
Losing sight of our goals - Sister Pulispher - Florence Chadwick swam to the California Coast. Stopped less that a half mile from the coast because the fog was so dense that she couldn't see the coast. Reminds me of my run senior year. One of the coaches told Thomas Akeo and I that we only had 100 yards to go, so we started to pick up the pace But because we both weren't wearing our glasses, we couldn't see the finished we thought he was wrong. So we slowed our pace and began to walk. Then Mrs. Hansen came up behind us and said "What are you doing walking the last 50 yards?!" Then we looked and we could see the finish line and ran. It was that lack of vision that slowed us. We should we had trusted in what we knew was there.

That was a true story about running without my glasses on. Never did that again, simply so I wouldn't make the same mistake of slowing down and wrecking a possible great run time.
Yesterday was a local holiday, Kamehameha Day. It was nice to have Lloyd home from school and all the babies together. Unfortunately, Nakeu, still had to go into work but that's okay.
We went to the park for a while and the babies hammed it up!
