Stress

Wahoo!!!!!

Stress stress stress! I think this week is a record holder for most stressful week.

We had interviews on Monday, mission council on Tuesday, and Zone conference on Friday. Woot! We were flying from one side of Barc to another. The morning of Zone Conference everything seemed as though it was going to fall apart. The table clothes only covered half the table. Those who were supposed to buy cups and plates didn't. The projector didn't work, and like a cherry on top, president came out of the bathroom steaming... there was no toilet paper. But all is well. The zone conference worked, the spirit was felt, and no one died!

We are teaching one of the most interesting people ever. He is from Egypt. He comes from Muslim background, but a grandmother's last dying wishes has sent him on a religious scavenger hunt. He came to a baptismal service and wants to know more about Jesus Christ. He now is praying every night to know if the Book of Mormon is true. It is really really an amazing opportunity to be a part of his search for the simple fact that it is completely completely sincere. I love him. He is an example to all. He is humble and willing to learn.

I invite you all to follow his example. Search for God. Don't be satisfied with getting the benefit of the doubt. Hoping that He wont judge us harshly because we cant see Him. I am most certain that in one way or another God will simply ask us, "Did you look for me?"

I love you all. Work hard.
