Pacific Area President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Elder Kevin W Pearson with Fiji Service Centre Staff.
Elder Kevin W Pearson, Pacific Area President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, arrived in Suva on Friday for his final visit to the country.

He finishes his assignment in the Pacific in August when he returns to Salt Lake City in the United States, for a new assignment.

In his last official duties here, he is presiding in the Nausori Stake Conference which opened at the Stake Centre in Delaivunitoa, Naulu, last night.

He will conclude today with the re-organisation of the Nausori Stake.

In a special meeting with the employees of the Fiji Service Centre on Friday he expressed his love and gratitude to all of them for their contribution to the Open house and Rededication of the Suva Fiji Temple in February and March.

“It was so wonderful for me and Sister Pearson to see how incredibly organised every single aspect of the temple open house and rededication under the most trying of circumstances but every one of you performed brilliantly. How grateful we are for the many thousands of hours of organisation that had been put into the planning of this major event,” he said.

As a special message for the employees, he reminded them that through small and simple things greater things are brought to pass. He shared three examples of the small and simple things that employees could do which included daily prayers, daily scripture reading and repentance.

“Thank you for all you have done to bless the lives of all those people who were affected by Cyclone Winston, he said.

Elder Pearson was also a guest speaker at the LDS Primary School and LDS Church College in two separate events on Friday.
