Conference

Hey y'all ( I never know how to start these things so the default
beginning is "hey y'all") 

Well this week has been pretty good. The highlight of the week was conference, of course, the worst part of the week was when I heard news that Lonnie might not get baptized this
upcoming Saturday :( so if you don't know what to say in your nightly prayers you can start off by praying for Lonnie and his family :) I would highly appreciate that!!

Funny story of the week:
So Hermana Hendrickson and I were walking outside and we pass by a kid
riding his skateboard, hna h decided to stop the kid and ask him if
she can try it out. She tries for a few minuets to skateboard and it
was a total fail.  I ,being slightly prideful, tell hna h to give me
the board and I say, " this is embarrassing, let me show you how it is
done." So I put the board down and I try peddling but the board is
being really resistant, I look down and notice that the wheels are
really old and worn out, hence the problem of me not going anywhere.
At this point I realize why hna h was having such troubles
skateboarding, but me still being prideful, I know that I have to show
her how it is done. So I walk a few feet to where a hill begins
thinking that this will solve my problems with not being able to get
the board moving....  I put one foot on the board and start pushing
with the other, determined to get it goin.  Once I felt that I had
reached the appropriate speed for successes..... I took my other foot
and placed it onto the board as well.  With all my weight now resting
on the skateboard, I could tell that things weren't going to end well.
The board began to shake and then it spun and turned horizontally
leaving me going forward without a board underneath me. I landed right
on my backside with my skirt flying up to my face. I jumped up as fast
as I possibly could and then I began my walk of shame back up the
hill. I thanked the kid for his board and walked away.  Hermana
Hendrickson was nice and tried to baby me because of my cuts haha. I
was too embarrassed to even notice the pain haha.

Well this week we taught a lot of lessons, but we are not having any
progressing investigators..... It is killing us. We are still working
on finding families with real interest, we found a lot of people who
will let us in and listen to our message, but none of them are showing
an interest in the message of the restored gospel. This week we are
going to continue the hunt for people who are ready to act on the
things we teach :) we have faith that there are plenty of people ready
to accept the gospel we just need to do a little more searching and
God will lead us right to them.

Something fun that we recite ever morning in our comp study is

"Make no small plans they have no magic to stir men's souls. This is
the vision I have for the south. I believe that one day the south will
baptize more people into the church than all other English-speaking
missions in the world together. They're great hosts of marvelous
Baptists members of the church of Christ, Methodist and Catholics who
are honorable people and have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and love
Him. As they see their church veering off to the right and to the left
of these basic teachings they will begin to search for truth. And as
pivotal teachers come into the church and have influence. We will see
the time when we will baptize hundreds and thousands, tens of
thousands, in your day you will see 1 million members of the church in
the South State. There will be temples plural the South States. What a
great call you have to serve with these marvelous people. The
missionaries left the south, we are making great strides and expect to
continue."

Elder Vaughn J  Feathersrone

As I recite that every morning I know that The Lord is hastening His
work in the south and that there are people ready to accept the gospel
of Jesus Christ!!!
Love y'all

quote from conference "you are infinitely more precious to God then a tree"
Isn't that so true haha
