Favorite Scripture:
And they were all young men, and they were exceedingly valiant for courage, and also for strength, and activity; but behold, this was not all---they were men who were true at all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted.
Yea, they were men of truth and soberness, for they had been taught to keep the commandments of God and to walk uprightly before him.
Alma 53: 20-21
Neat Story:
We've been trying to learn our roles as Zone leaders by just jumping in and getting our hands dirty, and it's been going pretty well thus far. We had a sweet meeting with all of our District Leaders, and I feel really well about all our districts. Things are lookin' up for this transfer for sure. We did have a change throughout the mission though. Now, we will have Zone Conferences only quartely, as well as interviews, with multiple trainings inbetween. We are having a 3 day training that is suppose to take effect worldwide in May, but Pre. Jackson decided, "Why not just get it going now?" He's full of energy. Manonibash Paul was baptized by Elder Willie.I got to go and then had to get back for our Sac. Mtg. It was pretty special for him. In this area, 5 were confirmed. 3 sisters and 2 brothers. I was asked by one of the sisters to confirm her, so it was awesome.This new branch is the 2nd branch, and has a lot of potential. We're going to have success, I know it. After all, I still have 4 families to baptize before I can come home.
