Friends and Family!
Pride is bad. No fine print, no loopholes, no confusion
about it, it's just bad. But simply observing that my dad did his mile and a
half for his Air Force PT test in 10:28 and I did the same distance this
morning in 10:23 is not a prideful observation :)
Haha, the work is going well here! James is stalwart and
consistent, we're meeting with him and our mission president tomorrow to talk
about baptism and see how close we are. The attached picture is James and I. He
has since been wearing a shirt, tie, and pants to church and keeping all the
commitments we leave with him!
The Shin's are also doing well. Slower progress, but
progress nonetheless. We also have found several good people who live in the
other zone, inner city Rochester, but the work is the same regardless of what
area the people live in. We'll have to hand them off to the other missionaries,
but oh well!
We have general conference this weekend and my challenge
is to watch it! If you've never watched general conference, there are several
sessions that are about 2 hours long each. But they're divided into several
different talks (sermons/speeches/whatever you want to call
them) and several modern prophets and apostles speak. The
talks are an average of about 10 minutes long, so I invite everyone on this
list to listen to at least one of them. Those who consistently watch conference
every 6 months, I invite you to choose something you can do to get more out of
this one than you usually get out of them.
Have a fantastic week everyone!
