Zone Conference...
Hey Everybody!!
Another awesome week in Fallbrook!
This week we had zone conference which was a ton of fun. The main focus of it was on saving lambs and feeding sheep from the story of the lost sheep and also from Jesus' exchange with Peter where Jesus told Peter if he loved Him, he was to feed His lambs and His sheep. We trained a lot on being bold and some other teaching skills, because if we are to feed His sheep we need to teach effectively and boldly.
We had a good lesson with Tanya and Jason this week. Jason has been a little standoffish with us as far as doing lessons because of some previous doubts he has had about the church. he loves having us over but has been sketchy about lessons. But after our lesson this week (which was basically just helping him overcome concerns about the Book of Mormon) he shared with us that his heart has been softened a little bit and he is willing to more seriously investigate the church and look for the truth in it! Tanya was so happy about this. They also came to stake conference this week.
We also taught Scott Lord this week (I don't know if I have mentioned him before). He is a middle age guy who dated a member of the church for a while. He investigated for a while during his time dating her but never really progressed. He just texted us out of the blue this week and said he wanted to meet. We went over and taught him about the Gospel of Jesus Christ and committed him to baptized on Dec 8th!
We also found a new person to teach named Jose Ramirez. He seems super solid.
Also Evalina did get baptized I have a pic
Love you all so much!
