Zone Conference
No ipads at zone conference :( They will be here by the end of the year though! I met the Brigg's cousin at Zone conf! She was cool.
Meet the Mormons
We watched Meet the Mormons! Like, a pre-showing before it was in theaters. We have specific instructions as missionaries to not go near theaters while it's out, because it's not supposed to be a proselyting tool. Which won't be too hard, since we don't even have a theater in Portales and it probably won't show in Lubbock.

Mule "thing"
The next day we were doing morning finds on a dirt road and
there was this mule thing that would follow us, but then run away if we
walked close to it. My companion, Sister Slade, kept saying that she felt like she was
serving a mission in South Africa. Haha, it kinda did, but mainly
because it was dang hot that day.

We've had to drop a few investigators this
week, which is always really sad, but they just cannot grasp the
importance of a baptism with the priesthood. However, we did find one
man this week who really wants to be baptized and be sealed to his
family of 7 kids!! He already has a baptismal date and everything and
we've only taught him once!! I'm literally so excited. We fasted this
past fast sunday for a family, and we found one! God works so many
miracles. We weren't even planning on teaching him, because we didn't
know who he was or where he lived, but we just called him anyway and he
was so up for lessons!
General Conference
General Conference
We've also been doing a lot of less active work.
We even got to watch conference with 4 of them! It was so exciting,
because they all really loved it. AND SO DID I. Holy cow, Conference is so much cooler as a missionary. Like, a solid half of the talks are
helpful to yourself, and the others all apply directly to the people
you're teaching. It was amazing!
I got a package from Cliff this week! Thanks, boof:) Me and my companion LOVED it! I sent a picture with all of it's contents.

Flat Tire
Terrifying experience Saturday morning when I had a flat tire on my bike and didn't realize it. Buuuut, the elder's fixed it for me! Life here is going so great. I really love it, and I can't believe I hit my month mark this week. It's so crazy! Time is flying by. But then again, it goes so slow every day. I miss you all!!!
