On June 1st, Elder Kearon (of the Presidency of the Seventy) and his wife visited Estonia. He was in Eastern Europe supporting Elder Rasband who was visiting in Belarus on the same day. We (missionaries) had a special meeting with him and his wife Jennifer. Also attending was Elder Tarmo Lepp and his wife Reeli [pronounced "Ray-lee"]. Tarmo was our district president until this last general conference when he was called as an Area Seventy. We had a very pleasant time with them and heard many encouraging words and powerful testimonies. The Kearons were very gracious to have their picture taken and visited with some of us one-on-one after the meeting. Later that evening, there was a meeting for adult members in the district as well. Again, a great meeting where we received important and timely counsel.
The next day was Fast Sunday. Elder Kearon was still here. He came to our sacrament meeting and spoke again after people had shared their testimonies. One of the perks of serving in a mission so far away from the strength of the church are meetings like this. No doubt, there will be more to come in the near future.
