A Special Devotional About Senior Missionary Service

This evening we helped with a special devotional for everyone in the Europe Central Area, age 50 and older, prepared by our Area Presidency.  The meeting was translated into 22 European languages and fed to those channels live.  (It will be available for viewing online until the end of the year.)

Here is the news release we prepared for this event:

Special Devotional for Senior Couples & Individuals
A wide range of senior missionary opportunities available.

On Sunday, June 9, from 18:00 to 19:30 CEST, the Europe Central Area Presidency will hold a special Area-wide devotional for all Church members aged 50 and over.

At the devotional members will learn about various mission opportunities, length of service flexibility, significant financial assistance available to all senior missionaries, and how to apply for missionary service.Church prophets and apostles have invited many more senior couples and individuals to serve missions. They have also made available a wide range of meaningful senior missionary opportunities and removed obstacles that may have prevented some from serving in the past.
