Hey everyone! This was an amazing week! We had Zone Conference, a few sick days and a baptism. So it was a great week. We also found some awesome people to teach.
Zone Conference was great as always. We talked about faith in Jesus Christ and how we missionaries and members need to have more faith in Jesus. It was really uplifting. We also talked about different ways to find new people to teach. Also there were some updates to Preach my Gospel. One of my favorites is that the term "investigators" is no longer what we use. Now we just say "people we are teaching" or "people with interest." I always thought saying "investigators was super weird so I am really glad they changed that. Then at the end of Zone Conference I gave my departing testimony and that went well.
Then Elder Talanoa was sick for a few days so we were in the house and I read lots of scriptures, watched lots of mormon messages and just chilled out.
The highlight of the week was definitely the baptism of Tristan (9) and Brooklyn (8) Carboni. Their Dad baptized them and it just went really well. Somehow, I ended up conducting the baptismal service which was pretty fun. Then on Sunday they were confirmed and I was able to confirm Brooklyn and that was really cool. It was an awesome baptism!
Other exciting news is that we got a referral for this guy named Jarrett and he is so cool! He is 29 and he never been very religious but wants to learn more about what we believe and wants to commit to living it if it will help him. He doesn't believe that Jesus is divine and our Savior yet but we had a really good conversation about it yesterday. More to come on Jarrett.
Great week though and I am loving the work out here, thanks for all the support!
Love,
Elder Morgan
