It´s been pretty good down here. I have just been having regular days with lots of class. I am really enjoying teaching fake investigators. Our teachers pretend to be someone that´s close to them who is not a member and we teach lessons to them. Its been great practice for my Spanish because we are not allowed to use scripts. We can only bring our scriptures into the lesson. We have also been practicing with fake investigators with other missionaries in our district.
We just barely had two districts leave from our zone. They were all great missionaries and I know that they will do great out in the field. Elder Trendler and I have also been called to the positions of zone leaders. I have grown more close to our district as well. Everybody is hilarious and super nice. I know that God put me in my district for a reason. They are such great examples for me of diligence and spiritual power. The photo below is of our district. Right to Left: Hermana Petersen, Hermana Alvarado, Hermana Richardson, Elder Topou, Elder Trendler, Elder Mills, Me, Elder Roundy, Elder Bohor, Elder Smith, and Elder Thomson.
General Conference was a great experience for me because I had a lot of questions answered. I loved Elder Bednar´s and Elder Rasband´s talks. One of the key points of Elder Bednar´s talk I really enjoyed was this phrase "We must give everything unto Christ". It reminded me of another Bednar talk I had watched which explained one of Christ´s main characteristics. In this talk Elder Bednar stated that while we as imperfect humans turn inward Christ has always turned outward. Every story we get of the savior he turns outward to help others. I like Elder Rasband´s talk because he explained the importance of remembering spiritual insight. His quote "Don´t Forget... Please Don´t Forget" comes to my mind frequently.
