Conference Weekend and a Package!!

Hola! 

This was the best weekend ever, aka... .CONFERENCE WEEKEND!!!! 

Seriously conference was amazing! We invited a lot of people to the general conference, and no investigators came.. BUT.. on a happier note.. I LOVED CONFERENCE. Conference on the mission is the best thing in the entire world. its like Christmas. All the gringo missionaries get to watch conference in English in a separate room.. and its so fun. Every single talk was amazing.

I definitely found answers to some questions I had written down beforehand, but I think my favorite talk may have been the one by Russell M. Nelson, about the Book of Mormon. During the whole thing I was just feeling a fire inside! I loved that he said that to be able to say  "I know this book is true" is not enough!!! We need to study it and pray about it, till we get to the point that its the cornerstone of our testimony. That we wouldn't want to live one day without it.  Then I was eager to get home that night to write in my journal, and have time to read the BOM. 

The next day Tad R Callister gave a talk about Joseph Smith, and how the BOM literally couldn't have been written by him, or thought up in his mind. And I just wished I could share it with every single investigator ever. Every missionary in the room was just freaking out, cuz we were all so amped on the spirit haha. Missionaries are weird. But last night when I got home I decided to do what Brother Nelson said... I have lists of things the Book of Mormon 1) reveals 2) clarifies 3) doctrines 4) warns us of.  etc. And I read Alma 34... just picking up where I am right now in my reading, and in that one chapter I found lots of things to add to the lists. So I'm excited to keep that up. 

We got a lot of rain this week! Which is a little inconvenient because noooo oooone talks to us.. .but 

Me & my new dress, Nadia, H. Coleman 

está bien...we keep working anyways. We had a couple good charlas, and have an investigator, Erika, who is great! She actually has a real desire to know if the church is true. We taught this other guy Juan Carlos, who is old and Catholic, and has no teeth. One of the days this week was day of San Miguel (one of their saints), and so they had a parade for that... and it was a litttttle hard to teach because of that holiday. 

I got a package!! by courier from my parents on Saturday, and it was the best thing everrrrr! It had powdered drink packets, tiny pendant necklaces, peanut butter, nutella, a dress, probiotics, mentos, mints, and other goodies.  Also my wonderful trainer went home last week, and called me on pday  shout out to her! 

Love you all! 

Write to me what you liked from conference!
