Interns Helping in the Office

It has been really fun having two college interns working in the office this summer. We have had Yale Layton
from Arizona working in the legal department and Annie Wong from Hong Kong working in Public Affairs.

Yale served his mission in Hong Kong six years ago and has been assigned to the legal department for six weeks. He has re-lived his mission by going back to the various branches or wards to visit all the people he worked with and taught. He developed a great blog of all his activities which has been fun to read (http://yaleinasia.blogspot.com/). One of the amazing things, is Yale is comfortable with the old and young alike. On his last day in Hong Kong, he joined the senior missionary couples and the Area Presidency at the temple. It is so refreshing to see his love for his mission.

Annie is a five foot tall fireball. She is so fun to tease and work with. She is a convert to the Church. Two sister missionaries street-contacted her when she was 15. Two and a half years after that, she was baptized in Hong Kong.

Following her baptism, she attended BYU and then went on a mission to San Diego (part of her assignment was at the Mormon Battalion Visitors’ Center), and now she is finishing up her education. What a blessing both of these young people have been to the Church in Asia and the United States.
