Well, there is some good news

I'm trying to think positively so the good news is that we found out that an Apostle is going to come to our mission in June. So that will be great. I'm pretty excited about that. They can't say who it will be but I'm still excited.
Today was tough and I just want to relax but we don't have time and I am kinda just sick of being in the office but I guess that happens at times right?
We had zone conferences this week and that was great. There is a way different vision for the mission now. It's even more about how they need to be converted and we are not going to push them into baptism. So that is going to be cool.
I have been fairly busy in the office this week.
I did love talking to my family even if there were some problems with the internet. But at the end we got it to work.
We have a lot of people that we can go visit now and we just need to find the time to do it. SO that will be fun.

"Baptisms are not important to us anymore"



So Elder Waddell came on Friday. He is in the Area Presidency. He's from California and like 1.98 meters. Which is like 6'6" so he's crazy tall. He talked to us about the fact that baptisms are not important to us anymore. But that the conversion is. That doesn't mean we should lower our goals and try to baptize less but that the conversion is what is important. Also that the baptism without temple ordinances is useless. So it was awesome to have a bigger vision for the conversions.
We are still working hard and getting alot done. But we will keep on working cause the goal is still in sight. I really am excited though.
I got bit by a parrot this week. It was on my pen and got scared that it was going to fall so it bit me. It didn't break the skin but left a cool story. At first I was like "oh no!" but then I was like "this is a story"
We have a great family of 3 that is going to get baptized this week. We are going to take them to the temple on Thursday to excite them even more to endure to the end.
But not much more has happened.
