General Conference

On the bus to Zone Conference

Watching the Priesthood Session of Conference

New haircut!

Well this week was a little rougher than the week before. Not many people were home when we went to visit them. That's not fun. But we had zone training this week and that went really good! We talked a lot about the First Vision and the importance that it has! 

and this weekend was General Conference! I LOVED it! All the talks were so great and inspired! We truly do have a living prophet in the world today! I have no doubt about that! If you missed the conference you can watch it or read the talks on lds.org do it. 

One talk that really made me think was the talk by Devin G. Durrant about ponderize. To take a different scripture every week and to ponder the scripture and memorize it. 80% ponder and 20% memorize. The scripture will have a bigger impact on you and it can help you to remember it in times on need. I'm going to start doing that. and I know it will help in the long run. I would invite each of you to do it also. 

Well there isn't much new here in Catriel. The weather is starting to get warmed and I'm now wearing my short sleeve white shirts! I love it! The cold is good and all but I like it a little warmer. Don't worry mom i´ll wear sunscreen. I wont get burnt too bad. 

But I hope all y'all are doing well! 

have a great week!
