New district in Sierra Leone

The Freetown Sierra Leone District was split yesterday to create a second district in the city, the Freetown Sierra Leone East District.  During the first session of the newly organized district there were over 1,000 in attendance.  Full-time missionaries report that plans to open additional cities to missionary work were recently postponed to coordinate with local priesthood leaders in establishing the first LDS stakes in the near future.  There are now three districts, 23 branches, and several groups meeting throughout the country.
