Mission office work

We have been here or more than a month now, working in the Brazil Area office, Public Affairs. It's like working at the Church Office Building in Salt Lake City, except a little smaller. But there are four floors in the "association" building, about 300 workers, a distribution center, and a shipping area. We're centrally located, right next to the São Paulo Temple, the first stake center in South America, and just across the street from our apartment building. We can eat in the temple cafeteria, or in the food court of the large shopping mall (also just across the street). We are the main communication link with the Public Affairs councils in the 17 largest cities in Brazil--where they have "multi-stake" councils. We spend our days talking on the phone, writing e-mails, and sending out DVD's and other training materials for service projects throughout the entire country.
We are on the 2nd Floor, which is the main floor right off the parking lot, about 5 doors down from the Area Presidency. So the working atmosphere is terrific. Rather than putting a lot of photos directly on the blog, I'll open some photos on the picasa web album at the following site http://picasaweb.google.com/deanpackham
