Zone Conference


Why hello there my darling loved ones! 

This week was Biz-A Cray Cray. 

Monday there was a leadership conference, so we didn't have P-Day until Tuesday. Those two days flew by. And I have no idea what happened at the beginning of the week. A mission has not helped my memory. At all. 

Wednesday we had (Multi)Zone Conference. It went from 8:00am to 4:00pm with a half hour lunch break. Besides lunch, we were in the chapel THE WHOLE TIME. It was as bad as school, and even the MTC! The upsides? It was pretty inspirational and uplifting The best part though was that I got to see my old MTC District!!! Man do I love them. It's funny how seeing them feels like seeing old friends when they were strangers a little over a month ago. But any familiar face feels like family. I think that some of us will stick so close to each other, you might as well call us that. 

Later Wednesday night we put Alexis on date for baptism!!!!! Holla! Now, before I get too carried away, you should know there's still a lot to do with her. Alexis is the 15 year old (former) Pagan. We've come a long way from the beginning. You never know what could happen, but she definitely has a desire to make a change!

Thursday was normal but Friday we had New Missionary Orientation. All of the new mishies and trainers got together at OSU campus to practice contacting, do roleplays, and basically just have the President make sure we aren't scoundrels. This means I got to see Sis Corbett, and the others again!!!! Out of everyone I've met on my mission, I want to be Sis Corbett's companion the most. She's the greatest and I just love her. We talk about praying to become each others companions all the time. I've never met a sis who gives such great hugs.  

So when we got assigned in the same group for our rotation, and were made roleplay companions, I about died! We got to roleplay the first lesson together. It was a roleplay, but we were assigned a legit nonmember who has been taking the lessons but won't commit to baptism #pressurewason. Long story short, we all cried. The spirit was so strong. I think we made a difference for her. It was the first time she'd been taught by sisters. Me and Sis C will be companions some day, I have a good feeling about it!

Also, at New Mish Training I was called on to explain how to run a productive comp inventory, and prez and his wife got up and gave me a High-five because they liked my answer so much. No big deal, I just about fainted. 


Saturday we got our Mini Missionaries! It's a thing that they do in Ohio where they send teens that are 16-19 on "a mini mission" to shadow us for a week. Our mini is 16 and SASSY. She'll fit right in. 

Love Sister M
