Hey!!!

So this week was a super, super busy week as Zone Leader. We were only able to work about 3 days during the week. On Wednesday we had to write a huge directory of all the missionaries and leaders of our whole stake and send it to our mission presidents counselor. Then on Thursday and Friday we had our Zone leader training with President Derbez in Juarez. It was super good! Then on Saturday we had more training and interviews with President and his Counselor all day so that was fun.

But for the training meeting with President in Juarez it was really good. We talked a lot about the importance of the Book of Mormon. We worked on different ways that we can present it and help people so that they want to read it. I really liked doing all of the practices because it helped me to understand how to better present the Book of Mormon to people.

The Zone has been doing great. We are working hard but we can still do better. President in the interview that my companion and I had told us each that he put us together because he has confidence in us to help the zone so that it baptizes and has a lot of success. He basically said the Colonies are dead, the Elders and Sisters there are in need of some guidance and motivation to work harder. So he is puting his trust in us to help the zone!

Well Love you all!
