On July 21 and 23, we held Specialized Training with all of the Elders in the mission. Our theme was Rise Up, O Men of God. We began the day with a morning session together in the chapel. President Rahlf introduced the theme and Sister Rahlf spoke on how true manhood honors womanhood. After the morning session, the Elders broke into smaller groups of 3-4 and had two great activities about planning. Lunch and workshops followed. The workshops were taught by our Senior couple Elders--Elder Honeycutt, Elder Leslie and Elder Shorter. After the workshops we met for the closing session during which President Rahlf taught about the qualities and character of Ammon. It was a powerful two days. We are thankful for our missionaries and their willingness to be Men of God.

Rise up, O men of God! Have done with lesser things.
