Well hello everyone.
Wasn`t this week just so superly great AWESOME!!! I think it was. Because we got the awesome opportunity to see General Conference! i loved it. We watched all 5 sessions in the stake center, and because right now we`re a lot of Americans in my zone, we watched all 5 sessions in English!!! It was great. I`m not going to lie, I love spanish. But hearing the Prophet speak, and hearing a translation of his talk in spanish, are two very different things. There were tons of talks taht I loved. I loved President Uchdorfs talk, and in the final sessions J. Devn Cornish. The newly called 70 from 6 months ago. he`s turning into one of my favorite 70s. haha But really the whole conference was amazing and talked a lot about missionary work. I loved it. it really got me excited to start workin this next week. I love having conference, then p day to rest, then GET BACK TO WORK!!! thats what i`m doing. I loved when President Eyering told the story of him and President hinkley in the Hotel, WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING?? I laughed a lot. but it really stuck with me. Why aren`t we doing EVERYTHING that we can in our callings of the church. Whether it be full time missionary, Ward missionary, of Teacher of the high priests group. We need to strive for the best in everything, prepare ourselves as best as we can, so when the moment comes that we are needed, we`re ready. Because you know what they say. "when the time to act is here, the time to prepare has long passed". I wanted to share that thought with all of you, that i`m super excited for the Blessings that Heavenly father has for me for doing his work and I know that he has many many blessings ready for all of you, as you work hard is your callings of the church. And for anyone who doesn`t have a calling, or isn`t worthy of performing your call, I challenge you all to do everything possible to be worthy, or if you just don`t have one, Talk to you bishop, and ask him what can you possibly do to help in the church, and i`m sure he will be more than happy to put you to work.
Were getting ready this week, for the baptism of Jesus Adolfo. he is super great. He is the Grandpa of the little girl that got baptized a week ago. We`ve been teaching him for 2 weeks now, and he has progressed soooo fast it`s amazing. he is reading and praying and went to conference and loved it. He`s super excited and ready. Sadly, he doesn`t live in our area, so the Zone leaders are going to baptise him. But oh well, thats how things in the mission are sometimes.
These last 2 days, we`ve had 2 other campanionships staying at our house. They both live in little villages in the middle of no where, so they were here for conference. Oh and to answer a question of someone, pretty much no one watches it in their house. sometimes. But not a lot. One of the missionaries that was here, Elder Slade. Is dying this wednesday. This last week completed 2 years, and sadly I said goodbye for the last time for some time today. But we will see each other again. for sure. haha
We also had CHANGES THIS WEEK!!! But We DIDN`T GET CHANGED!! I^m very happy. Elder Munden and I are a good companionship. We push each other and learn fast, We`re going to do really good this Change.
Well thats about all that I have for all of you. I love you all tons tons and loads and hope that you are all happy with what was said at conference and are trying to find ways of making yourself better. I know I am.
I love you all!!
Elder Summers
