Zone Conference

Hi everybody,

Happy Fathers day to all the dads out there! This week we had zone conference! My companion and I were supposed to give a training, but it went a bit differently than we thought it would. We kept asking how they wanted us to do the training, and the assistants kept putting it off, so we ended up just winging it. Luckily, our training was last and there wasn't much time left, so when we got up to talk, our mission President was like "you have 5 minutes." 
But, I learned a lot this zone conference. We focused on the importance of setting goals and planning. Goals are the desire of our heart, and planning is how we reach those goals. If we don't set goals and make plans, we won't progress in this life. 
Teaching lessons and bringing people to church this week was pretty rough. The majority of our lessons fell through, making it difficult to invite people to church. But, we are praying that people will soften their hearts so that we can help them. 
Spiritual thought: At zone conference, President Piros talked a lot about how to become a better missionary, we have to act, and not receive action. It is the same in everyday life. I invite you all to act! You can become the person you want to be as you choose to act.
