Woohoo!
Besides me getting sick and not being able to breathe and sounding like a man all last week, it was pretty good. :)
It was good because we had General Conference this past weekend. :) I LOVE GENERAL CONFERENCE. Seriously it's the best. It's so neat to see the trends in what the Prophet and Apostles speak about. I felt like it was pointed towards all of us gaining our own personal testimony because times are getting rough.
Reality check for me and Sister Goaslind: Next time we watch conference we won't be wearing name tags. :0
We had a pretty busy week with Scripture training and watching Meet the Mormons and having Leadership Council... plus General Conference on top of that. Sooo it was pretty exhausting and full. We also had exchanges. I stayed in the area and Sister Weldon (Sister Goaslind's former companion) came here with me. She is from Arizona and plays the tuba. Pretty gnarly huh? :)
People are getting into the Halloween spirit over here again. Freaky because that's the first holiday that happened when I got out here in the field.
Because of a Mexican family in the ward (the Ochoas) I finally had a torta! It was the bomb. :) We also got some more Jack Fruit and got to help cut it up. They whipped out their accordion and tried to make us play it along with a out of tune guitar... our attempt at a mariachi band was a fail.
We get to have Sister Taylor with us this week. She's basically a traveling nomad sister for her last 6 weeks. She gets to join companionships for a week or two at a time and just roam the mission and help all of us out because she's a champ... so that should be fun. :)
Other than that, I can't think of anything else. We had some really funny moments, but I can't remember them.... sorry.
Here's a link to some highlights from the speakers at General Conference. I promise that if you have a question with something or are struggling with something that one of these messages will help. Say a prayer and pick one. :) They're all great.
This is the one I quoted from last week:
This one was one of my favorites:
Love you all. :)
Until next time, I'll be doing it the Federal Way.
Love,
Sister Pearson :)
