¡Conferencia General!

Hey hey!

This week was just conferences, conferences, and more conferences! Tuesday we had a Mission Conference, Wednesday we had interviews with President Tervort, and Thursday we had a Zone Conference. Whew! Lots of good stuff heard and learned. 

During the week we got some good work done and started involving the members more and relying on them to help us out in the work. Cool story: Friday night we ran out of appointments and we had an hour left to work. So, we decided to set out and knock some more. As we knocked, we weren't having success, but then we got into one house and found a big family of 9! Needless to say, we received a great blessing to find them for being diligent. We are going to meet with them this next week and they are really good so we are excited to meet with them.

So, greatest part of the week..... General Conference!!! Yay! It was sooo good. Highly recommended by me for you ALL to watch it again on lds.org. Some highlights from conference!

A temple will be built in Tucson, Arizona! Yay!

The new age for young men to leave on a mission: 18! New age for young women: 19! So great! The Lord is truly ready for the youth of the church to become great leaders and disciples of Jesus Christ.
