I can't believe Payson is getting a temple! And before Spanish Fork! That is lame, but cool at the same time. Why didn't they wait until General Conference to announce the temple?
It sounds like Stake Conference was fun/exciting/great that it's over. That is interesting that Elder Robbins and Elder Gong used a question answer format. Elder Bednar did the same thing when he came up to Hokkaido (at our mission conference and at the Asahikawa Stake Conference).
What's the deal with Haiti? I heard that there was an earthquake, but that is about all I know. Remember, missionaries have no source of information except their families and friends.
Anyways, it was a decent week for me. I felt like we struggled, but yesterday we got a call from President Daniels and his assistants congratulating us on a few good numbers that we had last week. It sounds like our mission is struggling right now, so I am glad to be helping out what little bit I can.
We have found a few really good investigators recently, and we have had a few fun lessons. Yesterday we had 5 lessons! To put that in perspective, last week we had a grand total of 4 lessons (but we usually average about 8 or 9 per week). But yesterday was a great day where we taught most of the day! It was so uplifting. That is what I imagine a mission in South America would be like: teaching for the majority of the day, and finding when you have time between lessons.
Right now we are in Asahikawa because we are going to go bowling as a Zone. And tomorrow we have Zone Conference! Right now I am emailing at the same place that I emailed at when I was in my first few transfers in Japan. It is so nostalgic! I love it. Asahikawa is one of my favorite places in the world.
Anyways, that it about it. Thanks for all of the love, letters, prayers, etc. I love you all. Have a great week.
