Last Thursday the 18th of December 2014, we had our Mission Christmas Conference at the Baulkham Hills Chapel with the Coffs Harbour, Newcastle, Central Coast, Penrith and Suburbs Zone. We got like 9 zones in our mission and the other 4 zones already did their conference last Tuesday. We wake up so early that day to drive down to Baulkham Hills but suddenly we almost got late because we got stuck in a traffic in M4 express way which is no good.
Our Christmas conference started with talks from the other missionaries which is so good. Our mission president, his wife and the assistants give us a training about the apostasy, reformation and restoration. Their training was so smashed and I did really learned heaps with it. We then went to the cultural hall to watch the video titled " Luther " which is one of the great reformist. We watch the halfway of the video and then we did eat our lunch at the hall.

After eating our lunch, we went back watching the movie again and it was really good. We went back to the chapel again for the talent portion and it really went well with the talented missionaries that we have in the mission. Most of the missionaries use their talent in singing and also some of those presented their wonderful sketch of the Savior Jesus Christ and our mission president. We then watch the mission video that we have for this year which is so cool. Our Mission Christmas Conference ended so good and then we take pictures with the missionaries in our mission.
