The Primary organisation serves children in Latter-day Saint congregations around the world.
In Sister Wixom's message, she writes, "I love the Pacific Area and I love you! About 15 months ago I visited the Pacific Area with Sister Linda K. Burton from the Relief Society. It was a marvellous experience."
"Upon our arrival in New Zealand, the Area President and his wife drove us through the city of Auckland. I still remember the details of that drive. I noticed the Norfolk pines, and the sheep grazing in the city parks. We drove up to overlooks that allowed us to see the view below. It was breath taking. New Zealand is beautiful, and the graciousness of the people matches the beauty of the land."
