 After lunch, Sister Brinton shared the goals for "Joyful July", "Amazing August", and "Soaring September". She introduced the acronym GLOW. G = God, our loving Heavenly Father who wants us to succeed; L = love, the essence of missionary work; O = obedience, an essential characteristic of a consecrated missionary; and W = work with all our heart, might, mind, and strength. D&C 4:2 She encouraged all missionaries to have a special "glow" about them as they meet and talk with people each day. "Your glow will attract people to you" Sister Brinton shared.

After a successful North Zone Conference, President and Sister Brinton and the two Assistants, Elders Schneider and Niederhauser boarded a flight for the 3.5 hour flight from Khabarovsk to Irkutsk in the West Zone for one more conference the next day. Below are the many rivers surrounding Khabarovsk (some which flooded last year) and a beautiful sunset out the window of the airplane.
