Zone Leader

Quinn’s newest favorite place is Gift Land. They have everything a person could want. It sounds like they have movies months before they come out on DVD here in the states. I wonder what the quality is like.
Quinn met up with Simone Cummings who is from Grenada. She came to her mothers funeral, and Quinn was able to spend some time talking with her. It sounds like the branch there in Grenada is doing well, and the converts that Quinn had worked with are still attending the branch.
Quinn attended Zone Leader council in mid March. It was taught by Elder Coleman from the 1st quorum of the 70. He talked about establishing the church through baptism and higher priesthood ordinances. He also talked about the Book of Mormon. The meeting was in Trinidad, so Quinn got to travel. It was odd to see the differences of Guyana and the super Americanized Trinidad.
As we suffer on in a delayed winter, Quinn has acclimated quite well. He was having a hard time sleeping a few nights ago, because it was so cold (a whopping 78°). He is already requesting a coat, gloves, and fleece and wool beanie meet him at the airplane when he comes home in a year.
There has now been a mission all-nighter!! Quinn and Elder Coronado and Elder Murray stayed up all night playing Risk. Elder Coronado now owns the world!!

They have been working to reactivate a family who has a 13 year old daughter who is not baptized. They were able to baptize her. I am not sure of her name.

Quinn was moved to be put with the other zone leader, Elder Moses. He is now in the Georgetown 1st branch. They are able to do a lot of “zone leader stuff”. (whatever that means) Elder Moses is from Guyana. He is a lot more motivated than many of the missionaries in the country. He came out on the mission before the government put a limit on the missionaries.

In Guyana they celebrate Easter on Monday, so they can have the day off work.

The weekend of General Conference Quinn also conducted the Zone conference. They heard from a sister missionary who recently got back from her mission in the Dominican Republic. She was released in between sessions of zone conference.
