We had a talk like that in our ward recently. I believe it started out something like, "While I was on my mission I was fortunate enough to be called into a leadership position that allowed me to travel to all areas in the mission, and work with the other missionaries..."

Another common rephrasing of the AP announcement:"While I was in my mission I had the chance to work closely with my Mission President, and I something I learned from him was that . . ."

Brother, Sister, Bishop, President.

Gary and Saundra are good enough.
I call my bishop Steve.
I tell my seminary kids to call me Russell. No Brother in it and they feel better than calling me Dave.

Every mission has at least one. Unfortunately for me, I seemed to always end up with one of them.

what's a traveling elder? is it a ZL?
all the ZLs traveled, in that they visited each district for a day. was there more to it? a single holy one who went about doing grooviness?
