General Conference and Pizza in the Microwave?

General Conference

This week we got to watch General Conference! It was awesome! It

was in english because for some reason they don't translate it into

tagalog so most of the people didn't understand. It was amayzing to

see how many people came just to see the apostles and the prophet and

hear his voice even though they couldn't understand that much.

My favorite talk was Elder Hollands about how the Gospel is not easy,

the truth is hard, and how people will not like or want it. I liked

how he said that, right is still right no matter how many people are

doing the wrong and how it takes courage to do the right because often

we will be alone when we do.

I also liked Elder Bednar's talk about how our load is what helps us

progress/ get unstuck.

I liked the phrase- " our burdens are not made light because Christ

takes them away, but because He makes us stronger and able to carry

it."

New Investigator

We started teaching an18y old kid. he is a Elson's friend. He is super

prepared. He is always doing the assignments that we leave with him

and he always has great questions. He came to general conference this

last week, but I don't think that he understood very much. Hopefully we

can get him to marry his girlfriend because they are live ins so he

will be able to be baptized.

Pizza---we made pizza from scratch at a members house because she told us she has an oven.

When we got there she showed us her oven... turned out it was just a

microwave oven! haha! mom for future reference you can cook your

pizzas in a microwave. haha! It was still good but the cheese we had

was gross. They don't have any real cheese where we are, so we

just bought this kind of melting cheese. haha. also they had a suprise

birthday party for one of the YSA while we were there cooking so we

ate the pizza we made for the party food. haha everyone loved the

pizza! even though the cheese wasn't good.

The one on the far right is Elson, He is sixteen and always gives us

his friends as refferals and fellowships with us. He is always telling

them to read, pray and listen to the missionaries!
