Conference Weekend!

Conference weekend was amazing! A member put it best when she told us... "General Conference is like the Super Bowl to missionaries." that is so true. I have been super excited all week and there were so many amazing talks. One of my favorite talks was Dieter F. Uchtdorf.  During the Sunday morning session. He said "doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith." It was such and amazing talk. And that is so true. Sometimes we focus on the things we doubt or things we don't know. We need to focus on what we do know and work from there. Do not let doubt take over. "If you are tempted to give up, stay a little bit longer." It was an inspired talk. Another great talk was Edward Dube... He spoke on not looking back. Look forward with faith, there is always work to be done. Faith is always looking to the future. The Lord looks on where you are willing to go, not where you have been or what you have done. Keep on moving forward and serve the Lord. We watched most of conference at our ward mission leaders house which was pretty fun. They didn't make abelskebers but that's OK we had some delicious lasagna. I missed going to priesthood with grandpa and dad at Bear Lake. That is a memory I will cherish forever.  Conference was great, it takes a whole different meaning when you are out here in the field. There were many talks on missionary work and I am excited to see the work hasten. The time is now! We had another great week in West Chester, we are working super hard and relying on the Lord with everything that we do. It is getting colder and colder as the days go on, we are on bikes so hopefully it doesn't snow too soon. And if it does... oh well, it will be super fun. Love you all, thanks for all your support.
