Ok so I'll fill you all in on what happened at zone conference last week! It was really focused on using our time most effectively. As missionaries, there are so many people we could be talking to, so we need to make sure we are spending our time with those who will benefit from it most. So we've been really trying to not waste our time with those who aren't progressing. And it's been sweet because it's giving us more time to find others to teach as well!
Speaking of finding, it was sweet this week! I was really trying to talk to everyone we saw, so while we were driving, I told my companion to stop the car, and I rolled down my window in 5 degree weather and started talking to this random lady. She said that she believes the Book of Mormon to be the word of God and that she wants to come to church! It was incredible.
The most effective way for us to find so far is just talking to people on the street. Because most of them are college students, they love to talk to us!
Eating with the members is so awesome. We just have a blast with them, learn about their lives, share a message with them, and then encourage them to come out and teach with us! We've been getting fed a lot of pizza and breakfast food lately.
And In my studies, I've kinda been focusing on how to be a good leader. There's kinda a culture in the mission that you need to be afraid of your leaders and that drives your efforts, but I'm not a fan of that. So I've been studying how Christ was a leader and how he loved those he led and served them. So if any of you have tips on how to be a leader let me know!
