Oct 7th Letter

GOOD MORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How was everyone's Conference weekend??  Mine was amazing!! I loved all the talks. I had some of my favorites which I will talk about soon but I love it. My last one on the mission!!!! YEE-HAW!!!

 On Tuesday I was on exchanges with Elder Hill!. He and I both had to go to the doctors to be looked at and everything is well with me. The Doctor told me that I need to buck up about my wrist and that if it gets worse to get it drained by a needle. The reason why it is hurting is because a nerve and a vein run on top of it!

 Wednesday we were doing service at the horse ranch! It was awesome, it rained most of the day so working in the rain! But then the member took us with her somewhere we didn’t know where we were going and we pull into a Toyota dealership and we spent the next 3 hours there while she was talking about getting her truck swapped in for a Toyota. I realized something I know why people in offices love their coffee. I was there for 3 hours and I had 4 cups of hot chocolate MMMM. HAHA that night we went to the mutual night for our ward and we played ultimate Frisbee. It was a lot of fun.

   Thursday was awesome we had to go get our cars oil changed I forgot we had to do that! Been busy! haha got that done and did our weekly planning!! We than visited a sort of investigator, she is a daughter of a Part Member family. She loves us but we pulled up and she was waiting for us! She ran to the door and was like. “It’s about time you show up! I was waiting for you" haha well I guess someone is waiting for us to come and excited about us coming haha. We than went to dinner and guess who we had dinner with UNCLE LYNN AND AUNT KATHRINA. I got a call from them on Monday night saying that they want to take me out to dinner and they said that I needed to pick the place and time. So I took them to get some more Texas BBQ. We had a good time with them, it was awesome but weird at the same time talking to them. Weird in the way that it was actually family not members from our ward. But it was so nice to be able to have dinner with them and catch up on a lot of stuff!

 

The best part this week was of course Conference week!!! It was so nice to be able to go to members houses and watch it there. It was a nice change of what our week is usually is! But I watched all of conference at member’s houses. I stayed up during the whole time and took notes as for my companion he fell asleep. At one house he woke himself up by snoring. haha it was awesome having my last conference on my mission and can’t wait to be able to watch it at home next time.

 

MISSIONARY MOMENT

Here are some thought that i had with conference.

I had several favorites

 Saturday was President Ucthdorf.

"doubt your doubt before you doubt your faith"

I loved that quote. I loved how he talked about everyone is saying well I am not joining because this person is a hypocrite. Well we are all that if we were perfect and the world was perfect than we didn’t need to have a church. But I feel like he said it so perfectly

 

I loved Elder Gifford Nelsen. I have heard him several times. He was our area 70 before he was made a quorum of the 70s. But he is totally right we need to have a "game plan” and how are we going to work with the missionaries.

 

And of course I loved the talks by President Monson. I felt the power and authority that he has. I went in wanting me to come out and say with conviction that he is our prophet and I felt it when he was talking about his wife. I testify that he is the prophet!!!!

 

I hope yall have a good week. I will let you know where I am going and new address. I love you and stay true to the faith that you do have
