more news of the week . . .

[L] is still good to go for october 10th! but keep praying for him :) the other big news of the week was zone conference...SO good. those spiritual boosts are just what you need every few weeks. i was asked to speak AGAIN which really surprised me because i spoke a few transfers ago. the topic was scripture stories that changed your life, so i spoke about the story of Abish and how it helped me decide to go on a mission. it's always so fun to gather with all the missionaries. the elders are awesome . . . there are so many just SOLID elders that i look up to so much. there's a lot i can learn from them on how to be a better missionary.

hmmm other things to share. i should just tell you some little random things i always forget to mention that give you an idea of what my life is like. the members LOVE to feed us dessert and i'm really worried i'm going to get fat hahaha. last sunday we had pie THREE times and ice cream twice! sometimes people even just see us walking by and run out with something. they're so excited that we can't turn them down. yesterday the members we ate dinner with fed us homemade apple pie and ice cream, she sent each of us home with a little personal mini apple pie, then a member flagged us down while we were knocking doors and gave us homemade ice cream, and then we had a member lesson last night and afterwards they gave us apple crisp and ice cream! oh gosh i thought i was going to POP. anyway we are well fed for sure.
