Happy rainy Monday! It's good to hear from y'all. It's been a great week- we started off the week by doing some service at the food bank with lots of other missionaries! We got a lot accomplished- many hands make light work! Not sure who said that... but it's true! We had a "Death Day" Party at Freddy's (ice cream) for Sister Manning because she goes home in like 2 days! Sister Carroll, Udall, and Beesley joined us :) I have great friends. General Conference was SO good!! I loved every second of it!! My poor companion got hit with the flu on Sunday, so we missed the morning session, but we will definitely watch it soon! What were some of y'all's favorite talks? These were a few of mine: (so far!- can't wait to watch the Sun. Morning session!)
-Elder Durrant- "ponderize" a scripture and save money each week
-Elder Uchtdorf- Simplifying our Discipleship
-Elder Cook- "Ship Shape and Bristol Fashion"
-Elder Hales- debt, education, dating/marriage ...probably one of my VERY favorites!
-Elder Holland- the divine role of mothers- LOVE!
Ah! So good! I'm grateful for the Holy Ghost that is able to speak to us directly and teach us individually. Heavenly Father knows us so perfectly! My testimony has been strengthened a lot this weekend and I am so grateful that I was able to listen to the words of the Lord's chosen prophets and apostles. What were some of your thoughts from this conference weekend?
This week I will be taking Sister Manning to the mission office and she will be flying back home on Wednesday. I will be picking up my new companion, Sister Johnson! She is a sweet girl- I have served a little bit around her when I was in Canyon/Amarillo and Dalhart. She is great! More deets to come... :)
Well, I love y'all! I hope you have a great week!
Happy Fall Y'all.
Love,
Sister Evans
