just kidding!!!Well conference was SUPER GREAT. Thanks to the area presidente the great ELDER NASH we got to watch all the sesions, not in english, but i undestand now what they are saying. But its better to hear the apotles real voices. Elder Anderson recorded his talk into spanish.... it would have been better if he didnt, he speaks real bad. All the colombians almost laughed, but im thankful for the courage of Elder Anderson because he made all gringo misionaries serving spanish speaking feel real confident. Elder christofferson on the other hand speaks amazing spanish and has a really cool voice en español. Of course Elder Hollands talk was a favorite and im going to memorize the whole book of mormon because of it.... not all but more than i am. I love how conference goes by super fast now, i used to think it was way long when i was watching it with you all in the living room, but i guess 10 hours of sitting in cool air has to fly by here in Cartagena. I only have one more conference left so thats not fun. Im glad our DON JAUN matthew is already counting days until the next one so he can see his pale norwiegan pastora (actually i was just glad to hear mention of matthew i was beginning to doubt that he has made it this far without her). The zone is hanging in there. Weve had better days in reality. we had a old friend enter the Zone this cambio, the ocioso ELDER SHUMWAY and needless to say he is not getting along with his companion. Also thanks to the trunkiness of my last companion we are now suffering from the lack of people who were supposed to be programed for these weeks (not sure if you understood that, its kinda of mison talk) in the last cambio. All in all im doing what i usually get to do, fix things. I just feel kinda weighed down because we arent doing our part. the mison has a goal of 2000 baptized this year and to reach that goal from now until the end of the year each zone has to confirm according to its size. WE need to confirm 4 each weekend and we arent doing it as of now. BUT we have a lot of people for the last few weeks so we are not going to loose any of them so we can fill in the holes. I have two great district leaders who want to see confirmations so we are working for miracles, its good stuff.
mom said that you wanted to see how my testimony is going. Pretty good i guess, i love what im doing and how im doing it. Reading the scriptures everyday brings me some great insights and i have of book of things im going to study after my mison because i have to stay focused on the basics here. I know that the lord loves all his children and im trying to apply that knowledge in my actions. Im learning how to listen to the holy ghost and how to recognize whats from him. Im bettering my work ethic and my ability to focus my mind on what i want when i want it to. And i pray and i know God hears me and you and answers us when its right. im happy and excited to see what the future brings in these last parts of my mision and i know the lord will be with me the whole way.LOVE YA LOTSELDER LARSON
