With much preparation, incredible support from ward members and the mission, the Elders in Eindhoven (Elder Van Overbeek, Elder Andrews, Elder Kunz, and Elder Burgess,) with ward mission leader Harry van de Sande, were able to put together the ward missionary activity "Mormons Got Talent." Due to great support by the ward council, and the guidance of Preach My Gospel the event was a great success.
From its beginning Sunday workshop, the ward members were excited and prepared after doing role play activities and receivinginstruction on how to invite their friends to come to the church for the upcoming activity.
A few weeks and a few hundered invitations later (produced by Brother Mark Daams, Eindhoven Ward) the Talent show had arrived, with an attendance of over 100 people; 30 of which were non members. Investigators came, who brought parents and friends;less active members were invited and brought their friends as well, and many other members also brought friends and family of other faiths. The night began with talents of every kind- music by choir, band, and various instruments along with cultural dancing, story telling, and primary songs sung with costumes by the young members of the ward.

Sister Cadillo organized plenty of snacks for the intermission, where the missionaries organized a church tour for everyone in attendance. Members of the ward gave short explanations of the various help organizations of the church in their respective rooms, including Relief Society, Primary, Young Men/Young Women, and Geneaology, with of course a highlight of the tour being the baptismal font.
