I Went To Meeker

On Tuesday we went on exchanges so I was in Meeker for the day with Sister Walker.  I got to meet someone they are teaching named Willy.  He is super awesome. Right now they are reading the Book of Mormon with him.  He loves it.  He actually went to Harvard to study the Bible.  He loves comparing the two and seeing how they really work together.  Willy is blind and just by shaking your hand and talking to you for a little he can guess what you look like and what your personality is like.  He is actually really spot on. 

Update on Frank.  We taught him the rest of the Plan of Salvation on Thursday then he came to church on Sunday.  On Sunday there was a member named Fred that just became his new best friend in about 4 seconds.  He sat by Frank in Sacrament meeting then invited him to class and brought him to priesthood [class].  Frank loved all of it. 

Friday was Zone conference.  Sister Herring got all of the elders in our district to do a musical number.  It went quite well they agreed to do it if we found the David Archuleta arrangement of "If the Savior Stood Beside Me" We found one that was close enough and they decided they would just sing part of it in Spanish so it would be close enough.  We also talked a little bit about what each of us learned from Elder Holland.  Zone Conference is always so exciting. 

Sunday we got to go to church in Steamboat for the first time.  The ward there is exciting because there are not that many active families but always a lot of visitors.  We helped teach the youth class for a little.  The young men that were teaching it wanted us to help teach the first vision story.  Then we taught Relief Society.  It ended up going really great.  We talked about coming unto Christ. 

This week we started teaching a couple.  There names are Kim and Bryan.  We taught them the Restoration of the Gospel.  They both loved it. 

Today a member drove us down to Grand Junction.  We went shopping with them and it was a blast. :)

I hope everyone has a really awesome great week.
