Hey Yall!
This week went somewhere.... Im still not sure where its gone but somehow im right in the the seat and emailing yall again. Wow. Time is flying by! First off I hope that everyone enjoyed themselves this weekend listening to the prophets voice! What a wonderful opportunity we as members of the Lords church have to be able to listen to the Lords servants!
This week is really all a haze in my head... This letter is gonna be a shorter one today but hopefully yall enjoy it. We started out the week with MLC on Tuesday. I always love those meetings, but at the same time they are 8 hours of packed full, non stop revelation and information for us. Then on Wednesday we were going to go on an exchange, but we found out that one of the missionaries in our zone was gonna go home the next day. So that day we continued to work and check up on people, but at the same time we worked with the assistants to help make plans for this missionary, his companion and where he is going to stay and other things. Also along with that we had to plan with the sister training leaders to have a Zone Training on Friday, that a meeting where we take the 8 hour MLC and condense it to a 3 hour meeting for the rest of the missionaries. We were able to plan it out with them, then do a little bit of work in our own area. The next day Thursday we woke up at 5 AM again for the 3rd time and went to pick up the two missionaries, we took them down to Birmingham and dropped off one, the other one we took out to breakfast, then took him and picked up his stuff and dropped him off with another set of Elders here in Madison, so they are now a trio. We went and did some visits. Then for the rest of the night spent planning and preparing for Zone Training. Friday we had Zone Training, it was really stressful putting it together cuz everything wasnt working right, but we got er done and all went well. Then Saturday and Sunday were great but very busy with General Conference! Which made it 22 hours of meetings on the week!
Haha now let me fill ya in on the more spiritual part of things. One is a very cool experience that happened is that in the midst of all the chaos we went to follow up with a potential investigator. Well as we got outta our car and walked up to her door, there was a lady standing by her car and said, "She isnt there." So we ended up joking with her telling her that we had met her and she was the lady we were looking for. Well we got her to let us come back. Then we put into plan what our mission Pres has been asking us to do, ask for referrals from everyone. We asked if she had anyone she wanted to come to the lesson and she said her cousin would love to! Then we hear this voice come outta no where saying, "Hey thats me!" haha her cousin was sitting in the car. But she wanted to come! We tried going back and they asked if we could come by this week so we will see what will come from it. The Lesson I learned was even when your busy the Lord still puts people in our path, we need to talk to them! We need to Believe and let the Lord guide.

- God will not make us something, we do not want to become. We need to be willing and participate. Go to work, so He can help you with something, to become something.- Elder Christofferson

Love Elder Hall!
