"I don't care what they say about us, anyway..."

All,

Good week. Short email.

MLC was the most fantastic meeting. I feel like I received a ton of
revelation on how to work effectively and help the zone to do the
same. We got an entirely new Chapter 8 for Preach My Gospel, which is
only in a few missions thus far. It has a completely new, more
streamlined, technology-integrated approach to planning, which is more
focused on the individual. Also, Technology is no longer a gimmick in
the missionary work. Need proof? The 5th Ward Elders taught a lesson
over Skype and then a lesson over Facebook messenger the other day. It
was awesome.

I had a few experiences with blessings this last week. Besides giving a
few blessings at the hospital, the Sister Training Leaders got in a
bad wreck. It was raining, and their car was totaled. They were fine,
besides some bruising. Understandably shaken, though. I was on
exchanges with another Elder a that time, and he didn't feel
comfortable blessing, so I gave a blessing to both sisters. I felt
really led by the Spirit in those blessings and it was really neat. I
like the priesthood.

Interviews went way over. Our mission president is one of the most
amazing people to have ever been born. He is personable, and he cares
for each of us in the mission. He is awesome.

1st and 2nd Ward sisters stole our Lego people that we put on our
dashboard. It is war.

Rock and roll ~
