This week we had Zone conference in Virginia Beach. We learned a lot about how to manage stress and how to face challenges " with out doubt or fear" It was great to hear the testimonies of other missionaries in the mission. We also had the opportunity to go to the family history center this week. It helped me understand the great importance of doing that work. " We can not become perfect without our dead; nor they without us" I would challenge all of you to use the resources the church provides us to do this work. It is as much of a missionary work as what I am doing. I pray for all of you to find the joy in this work that I know it can bring yall. We go out and talk to people everyday, and even if they don't except our words I know that the seed has been planted. I know that the spirit will testify to them that what we teach is true. I want to share a few scriptures with you and challenge you to have your own missionary experiences. ALma 13:24-25.  24 For behold, ^aangels are declaring it unto many at this time in our land; and this is for the purpose of preparing the hearts of the children of men to receive his word at the time of his coming in his glory.

  25 And now we only wait to hear the joyful news declared unto us by the mouth of angels, of his coming; for the time cometh, we ^aknow not how soon. Would to God that it might be in my day; but let it be sooner or later, in it I will rejoice.

I know that it is our purpose to preach to those who don't have this gospel in their lives. I know that the Lord will send angels to walk with us each day as we do spread the gospel. As we do share our message I know it will bless them. Share it with faith, share it with hope, and share it with charity. Be like Lehi and be desirous for others to partake of this fruit. I love you all and I pray for you all I know with prayer and strength from the Lord we can do all things. Have a great week yall.
