November 13, 2017 - Zone Conference Week

So, this week was pretty much a Zone Conference every day

in a different part of the mission. This round of Zone Conferences was super good. We focused on all sides of missionary work. From consecration to planning. 

The biggest focuses of the Zone Conferences were preparing for this year’s Christmas initiative #LightTheWorld and planning. I hope you all remember last year when the church did Light the World. It was super good, and I hope that you're planning on doing it again. It's more or less the same thing just a little revamped. It's still focused on doing service over the 25 days leading up to Christmas. I highly recommend that you go to mormon.org/download and take a look at some of the stuff

that the church will be putting out this year. The video hasn't been released yet, it comes out on November 24th, but you can start preparing for how you all are going to #LightTheWorld. I invite all of you to get prepped now, so you make a bigger impact in the world this Christmas season.

The Light the World part of Zone Conference was super good. Elder Allsop and I did the training on planning, which could have been super boring, but it turned out pretty well. We did a huge planning as a group during each of the Zone Conferences and those all went really well. It was a ton of fun. I'm sure there are a ton of photos from the blog of Elder Allsop and I giving our training.

Sarah and her boys are doing really well. They all went to

mutual on Wednesday and had a blast. Then on Thursday we had a church tour with them. Basically, we showed them around the church building and helped them feel more comfortable with where their classes were going to be. Plus, we talked a little about the Sacrament. It went really well, and they were planning on coming to church but Sarah had a migraine and Tonie was sick. They're so awesome. I love working with them! They are such an awesome family. 

Also, we had a nice lesson with Alicia this week. She's doing well. She still wants to be baptized, but she will probably be towards the end of December. 

Transfer planning is this week. It's gonna be super crazy and

super busy. I'll also find out who my next comp will be (Elder Allsop will probably be released). 

Love you all!!
