Let´s
see we saw all the sessions except for Sunday afternoon. They showed Saturday
afternoon in the chapel between Priesthood and the Sunday morning session which
we watched last night. It just wasn´t required so a lot of the members left to
go home for a bit. But of course we watched it. I missed a lot of Saturday
afternoon though because we had to find a way for one of our investigators to
get to conference. I don´t remember seeing anyone with the last name
hamilton...was it the sunday afternoon session? I really liked Uchtdorf´s in
Priesthood as well. He quoted the Great Gatsby "and we float on, like
boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past". Also I
really like Ulisses Soares about meekness, but it was hard to follow his talk
so I´m gonna have to read it again. Bednar´s talk on tithing was incredible. President Monson´s
talk Sunday morning was really good too. There was so much content in it I need
to reread it.
I
took some good notes but I don´t have my notebook with me. One thing I
remembered I wrote down was "do we keep the commandments because it´s a
law, or do we keep them because we want the blessings?"
I
miss reece´s
That´s
terrible about Maddie [broken arm]. She must not be keeping the commandments. (lol)
I
just have Pday with the missionaries here in Chiclana...elder nunez, hall, and
gutierrez.
I
added some pics from conference. the one at night that i´m not in (because i
took it) is with the other elders in chiclana, as well as jacqueline, (the
redhead tall girl) who´s a member in our ward and her little sister. i told
maddie about J.... her mom is not active and was the only member in
the family. one day a couple years ago jacqueline realized she wanted to change
her life and she remembered that her mom was a mormon so she just went by
herself to church one sunday and then got baptized. no one else in her family
is member or really supports her. i invited her to invite her sister to come
play soccer with us saturday morning, and she came and then said she wanted to
come to conference too so we took her and her sister to conference with us. i´d
like to baptize the whole family but i wont get greedy...
also
there´s a photo of me and our investigator S... whos getting baptized
saturday. shes in the white, and then the two peruvian women are members, and
then the other woman is a member as well. FUN FUN!!!!
transfers
are next week. i hope elder n leaves because i want to train. there are a
bunch of people that can get baptized here and i feel like i can do it... i know thats not very humble but really, i´m ready.
love
ya muchoooooooooooooooo
hope
conference was great and spiritual!!!!
