The speaker is Erlend Peterson, Vice President of International Affairs at BYU. He has given several BYU Devotionals and has had some pretty amazing experiences. He brings in Ambassadors to Utah and BYU. He works very closely with the First Presidency and Apostles to help LDS relations throughout the world. He is also working with countries in the Middle East to recognize the church and open up for missionary work. He has served two missions and been a mission president in Norway.
He spent 20 years as Dean of Admissions and Records and the last 20 as a Vice President at BYU. He is willing to answer any questions from potential students for BYU during our refreshments. He and his wife are in town visiting family and attending a granddaughters baptism. We want to take this opportunity why he is here to meet the youth. He has weekly contact with the general authorities and apostles. We are thrilled that he is willing to take time away from his family vacation to give to the youth. Please talk it up and try to get them there.
