HEy yall.
So I know general conference is old news to all you americans but i finially got to watch it yesterday. I watched it in english with me elder zollinger and Barlow on the mission couples laptop. And Can i tell you how amazing it was. I nearly was blown off my chair by how amazing it was. I spend my time teaching about a lving prophet, and to hear the voices of the servants of God, was an amazing experience. I regret never taking conference very seriously before now,because this time i worte listened and prayed about so many things i learned, and i am so grateful for the opportunity we all have to listen to the words of God through his chosen vessels. This conference seemed really focused on individual strength and making your own testimony sure in preperation for these last days. And i know that what they said is so important. because i can see it all around me everyday. Lots of members here and new or not super strong and are tossed to and fro by the currents around them. but as each of us sure up our testiomies through study, prayer, service and doing what the prophets teach to us, we will be stronger as the world falls into more and more wickedness and tries to destroy our faith and what we know to be true. hold tight to the rod.
this week we found a store that is using images from the Mormon bible videos to make Christian magazines, that are definitely not mormon. Too bad there is like no copyright laws here.
During general conference, i saw David morely and cameron murray in the mtc choir! its awesome to see them, and weird as well, becuase i used to see that and be like. oh. missionaries. are so old. but now im here! Its so awesome.
This week i went on splints with elder pujianto and hes a pretty quiet little indonesian and we were in my area so i had to pretty much do everything Speaking, teaching. it was pretty hard, because sometimes i didnt know what to say but i applied what we learn from d&c, and opened my mouth and relied on the holy ghost to help me say what i could when i could from the knowlege i had treasured up in my mind. it was far from good, but it was enough for the most part.
It was also his birthday sunday, we went to the senior couples house and ate tacos and cake! what a treat!
We had an investigator come to conference then we retaught her and her doughter about the restoration, but shes been reading aabout the chruch online about polygamy and she told us that she is 100% convinced joseph smith was wrong...so all we could do was encourage her to gain a testimony of the BoM. Same for all of us. if we search our falsities, we will find them and be hurt. stick with the truth eh?
WEll thanks for the love and the prayers. You are all so great, and i love hearing frm you all! have a good week!

ps. my acne has gone crazy here. and everysingle member of the chruch has suggestions for me cuz its "undesireable and ugly". its actually prtty funny because of how open they are about it. in america you dont say anything different, here everyones like....hey you have acne. why, how, whatdo you eat, was it like that in america, man thats ugly, hey rub hot water on your face, hey rub ice on your face, rub cucumbers on your face, stuff like that. Indonesians are pretty open about almsot anything like that! but dont worry! Its definitely a good time!
