Yesterday we received O Desafio, the mission’s monthly publication for missionaries, by mail from Rio. There is much change in the mission. For instance, preparation day has been moved from Monday to Tuesday. There are many new zones in the mission, probably more zones now than there were districts when I arrived a year and a half ago. Maceió is in the new Recife Zone. The old North Zone is now the zones of Fortaleza, João Pessoa, and Recife. President Johnson’s editor’s page article indicated more change would be forthcoming. Elder Stewart was transferred from Nova Friburgo to be a zone leader in Belo Horizonte just about a week after I came to Maceió.
Today we received notice of a regional missionary conference in Recife on Saturday. It sounds as if the conferences are changing also, because there will be an organized sports activity in the afternoon following the second session and a talent show of some type in the evening. I have been assigned to give a 15-minute talk on the subject “Stand Up for Yourself, Being True to Your Own Convictions.”
We have been quite sore these days because of our Monday basketball game.
Tonight we split up with Aldo and Edmilson to do home teaching.
