Week 35: Training, training and more training.

April 10, 2017

This week was so great! It was really fun and busy, perfect combo. We had MLC, Stake Coordination, and Zone training, along with exchanges and some weird weather. 

It was funny because we started out the week with snow! It has been all warm weather up until that one morning and then we got like 4-5 inches of snow. But it was all gone by that evening and back up to the 80's through the rest of the week. Colorado's weather is so strange. 

MLC (Missionary Leadership Council) was also great. I always look forward to that meeting. It is the meeting that the Zone Leaders, Assistants and the Mission President and his wife attend. We talk about how the mission can improve and do about 5 hours of training that we take back to our zones. We also get fed breakfast and lunch so that is awesome. After MLC, we switched out our car. They sell the trucks when they get to 60000 miles and we got a brand new Tacoma, it is pretty dang nice. 

Sweet ride!

We had Zone Training the following Friday and it went really well. Elder Garton and I were struggling at first to plan an awesome Zone Training but the 10 minutes before we had to go to bed the night before Zone Training, we had a ton of inspiration. We started it off with a doctrine portion on how we can enjoy our missions more and then did a bunch of training. We then had set up this sweet obstacle course the morning of and had one of the missionaries in the companionship blind fold themselves and the other had to guide them through the course to build companionship unity. It was really fun and turned out to be a very uplifting Zone Training. 

Ending the week, we did exchanges with the Elders in Walsenburg. Elder Stark came up to Pueblo with me and we had a great day. We get along really well, so that made it fun. It was cool because we were able to find 2 people in a row that were interested in the restored gospel of Jesus Christ! 

John is doing so well! He came to church yesterday and loved it! He is in Jacob now and loves the Book of Mormon. He has some pretty serious marital problems so he said the BOM was getting him through it. At church he told everyone that it was helping him so much! He is still [planning on being baptized on the 29th. 

Well this was a great week. I love serving out here, is the Lord's work and I am honored to be a representative of him for this time that I have.
