Everything is going great! It has been a great week. So much has happened! I didn't forget his birthday. I have a card for him I just wasnt able to write the letter last week and I didnt want to send him a blank card, that would be lame. so I will be sending it today. I apologize. So what is a nodule? What does it do? That is really cool that you met jeffs aunt. They are a great family! I did get the package. Thank you so much!! That is so crazy that ryan came by the house. If you talk with him tell him to write me. Bowling in park city sounds like fun, and Airborne that is awsome.
Yesterday we had that baptism, It was a great baptism, she was so prepared and ready to receive the gospel. There was a good amount of non members that came and I know they felt the spirit. We were able to hand out 3 copies of the Book of Mormon. Which was really cool.
Yesterday we also had stake conference.There was a visiting authority, Elder Robert N. Packer. There was a meeting in the morning for all the prospective Elders we went to it because a couple people from the YSA branch were going to be there. After the meeting we went up to Elder Packer and Invited him to come to our baptism that we were going to be having that night. He wasnt going to be able to make it because he was going to be flying home. The General session of stake conference was a great meeting. All the speakers did a great job. Th e spirit was very powerful there and we had one of our investigators there. We think she enjoyed it. While Elder Packer was speaking he asked all the missionaries to stand up then he turned to our mission president and and said "who are your Zone Leaders" and he told us to raise our hands so we did. My heart was pounding so hard. When he saw that we were the ones that invited him to our baptism he told everyone what we did with tears in his eyes and told everyone that they should come to it. He then proceeded to talk to everyone about missionary work and how they are the ones that need to be keeping our planners filled. He promised that everyone has 15 friends that are ready and want the Gospel and if they prayed everyday for missionary oppurtunities they would know who was ready. It was very powerful. It was a really neat experience.
Friday morning we were getting ready for our studies and we started talking about some missionaries in the zone that we are worried about and one companionship came into our minds and we decided that we were going to go have companionship study with them. We showed up and started talking with them and they had a ton of questions, so we were able to answer the questions. At the end we asked if there was anything we could do for them and one of them asked if we could give him a blessing because he was struggling with a few things. So we did and afterward we were talking and he said that that morning he had prayed taht we would come over so he could ask for a blessing. It was so incredible. Heavenly Father answers prayers!
Wednesday we had our Zone Training Meeting. This was the best one I have given. It was a very powerful meeting. The spirit was felt very strong. We have received so many compliments on it. We trianed for the first half on planning and how to do it more effectively and then we had an incredible training on obedience. We had a great council and alot of the missionaries had great comments. Then we had a training on desire and we had a few missionaries bare their testimony. After the testimoniesd we watched the reflecetions of Christ come thou fount video and Elder Thompson and I bore our testimonies and then we had everyone go to their cars and ponder for a few minutes about the things that they learned. The spirit was so strong in the room. This meeting changed my outlook on a few of the missionaries in the Zone. The missionaries here are incredible. I was super impressed with them.
Love You!
Love, Elder RINDLISBACHER
