This week we went to zone conference in Macon and it was awesome. I got to play the piano and they changed all the songs at the very last minute and I still managed to play through them because I prayed about it and the Lord enabled me to do so. It was exciting. I love zone conference because I always leave with an expanded vision of what the Lord would have me do and who He would have me be - and I leave with the tools to accomplish it. This cycle we learned about the Book of Mormon and the power that that Book has. It speaks for itself. It testifies of Christ. I loved love loved these training because the Book of Mormon is.. well, it's the heart of why I'm a missionary in the first place. I began a serious study of that book and it changed my life and here I am. So I'm gonna remember all that and use that book more. 

We had a service project this week at a member's home cause she lives alone and needs help anyways we were gonna clean out her screen room out in her backyard. and her and the members were like "oh yeah just sweep it it'll take like 10 minutes no big deal" and then the room was full of every spider known to man kind and their babies so that was fun. We didn't clean out the screen room after all. There was no bug killer to be found on the premises. But Sister O was very brave and killed some spiders anyways. Good stuff. 

WeI met a wonderful lady on Thursday, she was a media referral who requested a Bible. Most people who request Bibles are already comfortable in their churches and just wanted a Bible. But she was different. She was raised Baptist and had been church-going for a long time and has fallen away from all of that. G requested a Bible because she wants to rekindle her relationship with her Heavenly Father. Her heart is soft. She is searching. I felt so blessed to sit on her couch and tell her about the Book of Mormon as yet another testimony of Jesus Christ. 

Jesus Christ lives.
