Week 73 – General Conference!

I am glad that I will get yet another one of those on my mission, because I am pretty sure I have gotten more out of conference than any other time in my life! I get successively more each time! I mean there are probably a number of reasons, but we will get into that later. I hope you all enjoyed it and your testimonies have grown under the influence of the Holy Spirit. I am so grateful for the many words of how we each need to stay true to what we know, stand up for what we believe in. Whether that be convenient, or not, this is what we need to be doing because this is what the Lord expects of us. I am grateful for the encouragement we were given in understanding our Covenants. Surely we are a covenant making and covenant keeping people! I am so glad to have the great blessing of knowing that these covenants are offered by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and that these are only acceptable before God as administered by His authorized servants, through Restored Authority. What a blessing we have right at our fingertips! Our rightful and eternal inheritance is completely up to us to what extent we lay hold. 

The Lord is seriously blessing us right now! We now have another fellow on date for baptism; it will be for May 24! Oh, it is Ulysses! Gosh he is a good guy! He teaches himself. He is incredibly smart, and absorbs very well. We taught more about the Book of Mormon, and its key role in our conversion. I wish you could have been there for the lesson. In his prayer at the end he basically said in asking that if the Book of Mormon was true and said well okay either this book is ingenious, or if it is from you... wait I think it must just be from you! He basically said that if he were the "Big Man" he would have given us the Book of Mormon because it just makes way more sense! Things are good there! Should continue on!

Amanda is still on date, we will get back to teaching her again this week... actually tonight. Should go there! Life is good right now. 

This last week we also had our Zone Training Meeting, I will get that picture out next week hopefully once it gets sent to me. It went really well though, we recreated our Missionary Department training and things went well... I will miss giving those training's.

I guess that brings us to the news that I will be getting transferred. I have been in this area since September, it has been rewarding. I have grown to love this area, I absolutely love this ward, I will miss those we are teaching immensely. I am excited for the change though. I will be getting moved up to the North side of the city and "greenie breaking" an Elder who just finished getting trained. Should be fun! At the end of that I will train one of the Tagalog elders that comes out in May. I am excited for the great things that lie ahead! So much work to get done I tell ya! 

Well I probably missed something, but ta ta for now. Love you all!

Love, Elder McFall
