This week we went to the beach |

This week was pretty crazy. We have been traveling a lot. First we had a
concilio on Wednesday and then on Thursday we had zone conference
with our mission president. We had to buy all the food for the zone, which was
really crazy because here the food is really expensive. After looking at
different restaurants, we decided that we needed to make food instead of buying
it.
So, we decided to make hamburgers,
which was really crazy because after being in Montevideo (on Wednesday) until
about 5:00, we got home at 6:30ish and started buying the food. We bought 56 hamburgers for 24 people and we
also had to buy, juice, cheese, lettuce, buns and some other stuff as well.
Then we put the majority of the food in the house. Then on Thursday (the
day of the conference) we started cooking the hamburgers at around 11:30 and
we thought that it probably wouldn`t take that long to cook because on the box
it says that it take 10 minutes for the hamburgers to cook in the oven. Well we
put the hamburgers in the oven for 20 minutes and they were still not cooked.
So we had to start frying them so we ended up eating lunch later then planned
but everything worked out really well and we all had a good time at the
conference.
In the zone conference, we talked a
lot about letting the investigators solve their own doubts and not just giving
them the answers. That is so important
because when they have questions we can help them by finding the answers in the
scriptures. Missionaries are not in the mission to just answer everybody's
questions. We are here to help people come
unto Christ and find the answer in the scriptures.
I had a really great week. I hope you
have a great week as well.
