District Leaders

We divide our mission into small "districts", each led by a District Leader.  Generally two to four proselyting areas (four to eight missionaries) form a district.  We currently have 25 districts in our mission.

The elder assigned as a District Leader sets an example for the missionaries in his district through his study of the scriptures and the gospel, obedience, hard work, proselyting skills, and other aspects of missionary work.  Each District Leader plans and conducts weekly district meetings that are held every Monday morning.  He also supervises, teaches and inspires the missionaries in his district.  District Leaders report to their local Zone Leaders.

Once every six weeks we have a special District Leader Training meeting for all District Leaders.  This meeting is led by the Assistants to the President.  The Zone Leaders also attend the meeting.  It's a highly interactive meeting with hands-on training, discussions and role plays.  The  photos are of our most recent DLT meeting.
