Another amazing week in Georgia! We had exchanges I went to Lanett, Alabama for a day. I learned a lot plus it was freezing there.
This past weekend we were able to have a mission conference. The entire mission came to Macon. We took a picture with Elder & Sister Anderson, Elder Soares, and Elder & Sister Giddens. We then were able to shake their hands too. We then listened to President and Sister Cottle share their testimony's, which is always great. Sister Giddens talked about her families conversion to the church. Elder Soares spoke about having a vision for your mission, and what you do here will affect you after you mission, be obedient. Elder and Sister Anderson talked about Honesty in all areas of our lives.
Then next day Elder Soares came to a special stake conference in our stake. I was able to sing in the choir. He came and talked with us before the meeting and after as well complementing us on how well we did. It wasn't the best, biggest choir, so that was nice of him. The stake conference was about making goals to do family history work and take them to the temple, moving forward with excitement with whats to come, sharing the gospel when ever we can. After the meeting I was able to talk with him a little. One of his mission companions is from lindon! It was such an amazing experience to be able to meet them and hear their words for us. One of our investigators Elijah who is 9 yrs old came to church and was able to meet Elder Soares too! He was so excited, it was awesome. I thought it was cool to meet him because my farewell talk before I left on my mission was on a talk he gave in conference. I'm so grateful to be able to be serving a mission here in Georgia and for all your love and support.
Macon Miracles,
Sister Wheelwright
