Deputyland

Not very far from the site of this Convention you'll find Disneyland. Most people have an idea of what they'll see in the Magic Kingdom. But here's an inside peek at Deputyland....

We welcome visitors from distant places, who share their experience and wisdom.



After consenting to the election of any new bishop, we call that person to the front of the House for recognition.



We track the fashion choices made by our fellow deputies.





We play with our food.



During short breaks, we sing favourite hymns.




We celebrate achievements.



We conduct intense post-vote analysis.



We greet certain distinguished friends from the other House who might drop by.



We send each other notes and share news updates.



Most of all, we belong to a vibrant, prayerful community--with its own protocols and procedures. Our moments of great seriousness are lightened by our moments of levity.

I'll leave Disneyland to the tourists. I'm thankful for the opportunity to spend my time in Deputyland!
