General Conference!!

MOMMA!!

So its been a pretty great week and Conference was definitely a highlight!! We got to watch conference in our chapel and they had it going on in English and Spanish there so that was convenient! And because none of our Spanish investigators came to watch with us (crying emoji) we watched it in English, and I think that was a lot more beneficial, not that I wouldn't totally understand the Spanish, but it was nice to hear it in their own voices. I got the general sense that they were talking about the Plan of Salvation and ways to build testimonies a lot, good stuff! If you go back and read or watch Elder Cordon's talk it is the same one he gave us when he came to the San Fran ward a long while ago, so I got to hear his conference talk before it was a conference talk!! I also loved what President Monson said about charity in the priesthood session and about the Book of Mormon, I'm going to definitely step up my BOM reading, I have really been focusing on the bible lately so I'll try and balance that out.

Glad you liked last weeks pics because I slacked this week for pics haha. But I will for sure keep all of you in my prayers as you go through your treatments and are recovering. And I'm glad things are all going well. I liked to see Ammon's team won the relay, was he anchor? And I wish the weather was like it was a couple weeks ago, it definitely is getting hotter now and for some unknown reason my shirts are shrinking or something because they seem to just keep getting tighter haha!

This past week we have spent a little bit more time on finding, because we have had to drop some of our investigators, but it's ok because we found a lot of new people that seemed pretty interested last week so that is awesome!! We are still working with Esperanza and her family (little dabbing boys) but they are progressing slowly. The members always do an awesome job of feeding us for dinners and it is usually super good cultural food, and my spicy tolerance has gone way up haha! I do get to cook myself breakfast and lunch though which is pretty cool, I made myself some bomb chicken a little while back which was fun, and I didn't get sick from it, so I guess I cooked it all the way through haha. And sadly pokemon was kind of banned, so I don't play it anymore haha, but it was good while it lasted!! I've been studying the bible a lot so I haven't given too much priority for BOM reading but that's changing with the counsel of the Prophet haha I'll just be reading it in Spanish now haha. Hopefully that promise comes true and I will be fluent by the end of it! I'll let you guys know! And I think choosing to read the book of mormon for a certain amount of time is much more useful than by chapter because you will be reading for comprehension instead of completion! Anyways I'll send the few pics I have in a second! 
Love You!!!!
