Love Stake Conference

 Yes the package was awesome i ate all the sweets in a day unfortunately, ahhhhh preservatives and sugar they are the best!!!! I read the peacegiver in 4 hours it was really really good! This last week was super busy! To start the week off i went on exchange with the zone leaders and me and Elder Debeikes spent most of the day driving to a place that wasnt even in our area. But we both helped supervise a youth service activity...i know what its like to be a youth leader now, i dont know how they do it these kids (probably ages 8-14) were given hand saws and the giant clipper things, these handsaws were fetching crazy they are ridiculously sharp, and then just let them go crazy on random trees in the park to trim down the branches. The group that me and Elder Debeikes were in charge of had the craziest kids ive ever seen. 2 of them are from the middle east and the rest were english and somehow they got into an argument about racism and they all had hand saws and i was scared there was gonna be a battle and that people would start attacking each other with them. Me and debeikes were freaking out the whole time. It was not okay haha. Later in the week we went to zone conference and i took pictures with 30 random missionaries and i also sang in the choir. That was a fun day i got to meet a ton of people from my group, the people i would have been with in the MTC had i gone to Preston. My group is crazy.  But yeah we didnt have a lot of time to teach and find this week so we didnt really teach or get new investigators. We also had stake conference and President Rasmussen gave me a shoutout!!!! He talked about Elder Halls bike crash and said that me and Elder Hall teaching someone on the side of the road inspired him. It was pretty cool! but yeah thats this week. Nothing too fancy and crazy. All our investigators are doing really well as far as we know so it should be a pretty busy week of teaching them! Love you and talk to you next week!!! 

He later wrote:

Also if you can have anyone you meet pray for liz She is literally on her death bed right now and is on a waiting list for an operation that will save her life. She only has her newborn daughter and no one else. She asked us to text her every day to make sure she is still alive so we can come get her child so she doesnt die. So yeah if you could have everyone pray for her to get either higher on the list or to be healed that would be amazing. This could be her last week to live potentially. soooooooo yeah. love you bye!
