Lets see if I can remember what we did this week.
Tuesday we did some service in the morning, then went to kinko's to put together some stuff for Zone Meeting
Wednesday. Then had a pass off lesson with an investigator who isn't YSA but is super solid.
Wednesday was zone meeting. It went SO well. President Passey came, and so did President Thies. ( Rincon Stake President). It was fun having them there giving input. After the meeting, a bunch of the missionaries said it was the best one they've ever had, Granted, for most of them, it was one their third one. But hey, I'll take what I can get! President Passey came to lunch with us afterwords and we had a really good conversation. It was fun getting to know him on a personal level.
Thursday was a pretty normal day, visiting less actives and such. That night we had a really good talk with a couple elders in our zone. I love taking care of issues like that. Just helping missionaries to improve. I'm so grateful for the opportunity I have.
Saturday we did service up on Mt. Lemmon from 9 am to about 3pm. It was way fun. Choppin wood and hauling lumber up the hill. Reminded me of the cabin.
This weekend was stake conference for us. It was great. Elder Paul B. Johnson of the 70 came and gave some amazing talks. after the Saturday night session, we were able to talk with him for a bit. He too is from Sandy, and his kids went to Jordan but he said he wouldn't hold it against me for going to Brighton.
Well, I think that's about all I can tell yall this week. so here's the last quote of the week.
A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.
David Brinkley
I love this quote. I have had a lot of "Bricks" thrown at me over the past 2 years but they just gave me more material to build my immovable foundation. Reminds me of Helaman 5:12.
I love all of you and am so grateful for the support you've shown over the past 2 years. I look forward to seeing you soon. Elder Taylor Alston, over and out.
