Cathedral

On a freezing winter day, Elders James Durrant (left) and David Dayton (center) talk to a potential convert. Both are 20 year old missionaries from Utah serving a 2 year mission in St Peterburg. The Church of the Resurrection of Christ (a Russian Orthodox church) is in the background. The elders ignore the women, instead looking for males to stop and talk to since the Mormons are trying to find strong church leaders - only males hold leadership positions in the LDS church.
