Their zealous Zone Leaders have envisioned the perfect zone photograph, and all have come prepared with their special baptismal clothing. Suddenly this rowdy, boisterous group transforms into the humble servants that they are, radiating the spirit of who they really are and who they represent.
Then with the same energy and eagerness of before, they run out the door, full speed, to accomplish their mission of the day.
From my perch above, I begin to see specks of white on the sand below. More follow, and just as the night sky fills with light one by one, soon the beach is filled with white stars.
In short order, the chaos organizes itself, and pays tribute to the "Best Mission in the World": The Oregon Eugene Mission. It was a singularly special event, one I felt privileged to be apart of. Thank you for sharing your spirit and your light with us.

I just love the pictures of the missionaries! My dad lives in that mission. He and his wife are not members of the Church. Hopefully someday :)
