General conference

Salama!

This week has gone by in the blink of an eye! It was mostly filled with meetings and with lots of taksibe rides and sleeping. Sounds fun, doesn't it?

-Tuesday we visited Sisi and Tolotra and gave tolotra a blessing for his broken jaw from an automobile accident. I felt pretty nervous about giving him the blessing, but he seems to be doing better as of now.

-Wednesday we went out and met up with Fr. Patrice to go see where other members live. We met a lot of members and we will be visiting them more often. After that we went and gave a quick tithing lesson to Durot, a 12 year old on date. He is pretty ready to get baptised! :)

-Thursday we went to the office for interviews! I was interviewed by president Duckworth and had a great time with him. He gave me great advice and instruction. I always love interviews with president.

-Friday was Zone conference! We had lots and lots of teaching involved, and some pulled pork sandwiches somewhere in the middle :)

-Saturday and sunday was general conference! I really enjoyed the talk given by Dale G. Renlund about blessings and how he related it to a campfire. I also really enjoyed the talk about how we cannot buy happiness.

I thank you all so much for all of your support and prayers. I would only ask one thing: would you all please please pray that I may be able to undesrstand the atonement of Jesus christ better as a son of god and as a missionary? That would be wonderful!

Thank you all so much for your love and I will talk to you all later!
