Week 2 in Green Bay

 Well this week was fantastic! So many things happen and it is so hard to remember what to talk about, but since my companions are Zone Leaders we do a lot of exchanges. So I have gotten to meet a lot of the other missionaries in the zone! We also had Zone Conference this week and I met even more of them there! Everyone in the mission is awesome! Zone conference was all about how to find better and do different things to help the people understand why we are doing what we are doing. If someone understands that this message we share means the world to us, and that we as missionaries are representatives of Jesus Christ, they are more likely to want to learn more about it! It was a very motivating conference, and helped me understand how to do the hard work the right way. You can do a lot of hard work, but if you aren't doing it in the right way then it is hard to see results.

   On Saturday we had a totally open schedule, which for us is not that common. We usually have a couple return appointments a day, or at least something we have to do because my companions are zone leaders. So we were worried that we wouldn't know how to effectively use the time. During daily planning we decided that we would do some work with former investigators. Turns out that none of the former investigators we wanted to talk to were home. But we knocked some random doors around the houses or apartments, and ended up finding like 6 new investigators on Saturday alone! It was the coolest thing I have ever seen happen. I know that the Lord blesses us in the ways we need it. We didn't find success like we thought we might, but we found people. And that is what we wanted, and what the Lord wanted for us! I know that there is nothing else that I would want to be doing with my time than finding people to share the gospel with!

  Hope everyone is doing great, I love you all!
