Hey y'all,

It's been such a great week! We had Zone conference. My last one. It was so amazing, they're so inspired. It really helps us through out all the different areas of the work. I learned so much from everyone. We talked about the Sabbath day and how we can be able to get more out of it. One thing I learned that stuck out to me is that when we take the sacrament we don't just renew our baptismal covenants but all of them that we have made. It's so much more then I thought it was before. I'm doing my best to make it more meaningful. We've made goals to change the way we look at it now and be more prepared for church. It's made such a big difference! We also talked about how we need to pray more simply with our investigators. Later we visited Angela and we prayed and after the lesson she prayed and said she learned how to from us. It reminded me of the training we had. It was fantastic! At the end of the meeting they have all those who it's there last zone conference share their testimony. I was so nervous! There was 3 elders and 2 sisters, sister Landis and I. The elders went first. It made me think of the first time I spoke it church. I was nervous then too. I prayed and it all worked out. So I prayed up until it was my turn. It went really well. I made it through with out crying! It was such an amazing experience to talk about my mission and how's it's change/strengthened me and my testimony. The spirit was so strong while everyone was speaking. It's one of my favorite parts of Zone Conference.

      Sunday was fantastic! Angela came to church!! She brought her grandson with her too. She loved that he was able to go to primary so that she could listen and learn more. They both had a great time, he didn't want to leave after he made so many friends. It such a great ward I'm so glad they were able to fellowship them and help them feel welcome! Later we went tracting and were able to meet so many nice people who are interested in the learning more. I love it when you meet someone and you can just tell right away they've been prepared and are ready to listen. Even if you get lost trying to find their house at first and can't call them cause you don't have service so your companion does the service dance. You become family and they mean so much to you, yes even the goat!  ;) Love yall!  Missions are the best, I love being a missionary! Make it a great week! Thank you sooo much for all your love and support!
