Hey y'all,

This past week has been great! It was so much cooler and dry. I loved it! Some of the missionaries from California think it is soo cold! My companion Sister Price and I love it. It's not snowing so it could be worse. 

 I loved listening to conference and being able to feel the spirit of it. We were able to listen with one of our investigators, Mary. She truly loved conference and how real and sincere it is. She had many great insights and learned a lot. I feel like I did as well. She is on date for baptism this Saturday. A member in the ward referred her to us. We had a member present with them. It made such a difference in the lesson, it was great! I've been able to see how much of a difference it makes when they already have a friend in the church. As missionaries we've been taught to teach not so much to find. Members can really help the work move forward. It's such a great thing to be a part of. Some things about conference that I liked are:

Elder Oaks on Loving and living with Differences. It was awesome on standing our ground without being disagreeable. A lot of them talked about loving others. It was cool because I met him.

Elder Anderson on the Prophet Joseph Smith -- loved it.

Elder Klebingat on Obedience --- so straight forward and direct. He was impressive. 

Elder Holland on caring for the poor. I can do better. 

Elder Nelson on Sustaining the Prophets. A few of them in a row talked about prophets. Interesting I wonder why?

Elder Ballard on Stay in the boat and hold on with both hands!

Elder Bednar on Proclaiming the everlasting gospel. Of course, because that is what we are all about!!

President Monson was great as always!

I had questions that were answered from listening to conference. It was such an amazing experience to hear the meeting in the different languages. I though it was so cool one of them spoke in Portuguese! We've been able to share conference with our LA's, and investigators. It's made such a difference in the lesson. I love general conference, and being a missionary! Oh and y'all should go see Meet the Mormons when it comes out! no excuses! It looks soo good but it's not for proselyting though. It's so that people will have a better understanding of who we are as members of the church.  Soo... Go and see it if you can. Make it a great week! Thanks for all your love and support.
