That time all of my pens died

This week has been crazy, I have had the biggest struggle with my pens! and I'm being serious here! We were in this Catholic Community Service place talking with this guy about interpreting for deaf people that come in (which we are now doing so that is awesome!). And my pen dies as I'm writing our phone number down, so the guy gives me another pen, that doesn't work, and another one, and the Elder Bird gives me his and that also doesn't work! Finally we used a pencil. But every day when we are planning all my pens stop working as well! This morning i planned using 4 different pens because they all died! I think maybe I am writing the wrong way? Is that a thing? I don't know but my writing with pens has just not worked!

Anywho, on to the real stuff this week. We had zone conference, that was fire. Good trainings, it was all about us getting smartphones next month! So it was way good, we watched videos from Elder Bednar and a member of the 70 training some missionaries and discussed it. It was really good! Also Sister Schofield gave a sweet training about how God loves us enough to push us and make us better, it was soooo awesome! and the President Schofield followed up with a training on God as a Loving Heavenly Father who is seperate from his Son, Jesus Christ, it was amazing. He told us to be bold in proclaiming the truth about God. He said "Many people enjoy talking about God with you, but they are talking about a different God" so he told us to tell people whats what when it comes to our Heavenly Father.

Second, our zone had a goal this week of 30 new investigators, meaning each area needs to get 3. as of 8pm last night Elder Bird and I had 1. So we used our video phone to contact some people and in the last hour of the week we found 3 new investigators! It was sweet!!!! Super pumped!!!!

This is the Lords work and He loves us more than we can even understand! 2 Corinthians 1:2-3 says:  Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.  Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;"

Amen! God loves us and wants to bless us! We just need to show our faith through obedience to His commandments and that's when everything starts flowing!!

Love you all! Have a great week!
