Zone Conference

Zone Conference!!

This week was Zone conference. Elder Nakken and I put on the lunch afterward and spoke after the mission presidents wife, Soeur Murdock for an hour according to our zone needs. It was very fun!! Tacos!! mmmmm Yes!!! We cooked the meat, bought the lettuce, tomatoes, salsa, sour cream, cheese and threw in a hint of lime. It seemed like it went over well, because everyone was stuffed and we had leftovers which we took home! I'm looking forward to shopping today so I can eat something other than tacos :) We also had an Elder from China cook two apple pies and a cheesecake.

This Zone Conference was a special one because we had personal interviews with president. The theme for the conference was for us to roar like lions. It was very inspiring and this past week after the conference we have seen fruits. Every companionship in the zone has someone fixed for baptism. Miracles are happening.

Randomly, since being gone for so long, memories will pop in and out of my head from back home. It feels like that world was just a dream. France seems so much like home now. It's hard to imagine I'll be going back home in less than a year.

It seems All of our people close to baptism have been letting opposition win. Seriously, there have been 9 people ready and standing at the waters of baptism but for one reason or another have not entered. I am hoping the Soeur missionaries that are coming will be able to break this drought!

My old ville of Béziers has been EXPLODING with 2 baptisms since I left and the branch is just gaining momentum!! It's so great to see the branch have new life, new fire and to see them thrust in their sickles to do the will of our Heavenly Father.

I loved this past talk about the Book of Mormon It was amazing!!! Everyone share it with your friends! http://lds.org/?lang=eng

Love you all!!
