Season 2 Episode 26: Zone conference and on date

This week was super fun! Not so much the travel, but the experience! So aside from Thursday and Friday, we were super busy!

So on Wednesday we taught Nestor again and talked with him about the gospel of Jesus Christ and applying that and rebuking a little more, hes now on date for baptism! His obstacle is a ride to church, his younger kiddos, and letting go of past anger. But he knows that God wants him to get baptized and it's his Goal and he'll work for it. As of now it's in mid November after transfers so hes got all the time he needs! Hes so fun! 

But maybe not quite as fun as Dale. Dale is trying so hard to stop smoking and after today, he'll be out of tobacco and hes not going to buy any more. He is a champion and is well on his way

And since we are on the topic of on dates,  Brandon is also on date and his Baptismal date will be the day he stops smoking (as of now its Oct. 19th) and hes a solid guy to. We've been teaching him since I've been here. 

But yeah!! Then zone conference and interviews came around and president Low made the comment that I've been in presque isle for a while, then at that comment I said oh no that means I'm leaving. And he said well not really it's where God needs you. And so the interview continued and then in elder Atkins interview president Low told him that if you kept up the good work, you and elder dahl may stay 2 transfers together! 

So 8 months here?? Hype zone!!!

Then zone conference was also blast and president Low went on a spirit directed path and talked about visions rather then spirit led invitations. And that was way good. I wrote notes but in short have a vision! It leads to goals and a positive outlook to the work we do! It's way fun!

Then the service we did throughout this week was finishing up the plastic walls of one of the greenhouses, food pantry stuffs, unfortunately missed the animal shelter service, but we also stacked even more wood!! I'm like super ripped now honestly.

 Lol jk.

Then Sunday rolled around and we had stake conference! And it was so good!! And this is the thing I learned!

The holy Ghost is the one that forgives the sins because he is the one that burns the sins away! So people cant repent until they are baptized and receive the holy Ghost to burn them away! 

Love you all!! Keep up the prayer and scripture study it's the most important thing you can do everyday. So do it pls.

But yeah! That's the just of the things we have been up to in the most blessed part of America.
