The Student Becomes the Teacher....WHAT?

 Dear Family and Friends,

Well it's been a crazy week that's all I can say. So we are just going to jump right in:

Monday: We had to move our pday because we went to the temple so it was just a normal work day. It was weird let's just say that. We went and weeded for a less active while she was at work (hehehe). We found a house with the number 2319 during finding time so we kept saying "WE HAVE A 2319!" I thought it was pretty great! We had a pretty awesome lesson with the Johnsons that night about the 2,000 Strippling Warriors. I love that story!

Tuesday: THE TEMPLE! It was awesome! We went down with 2 members and it was just the greatest experience! I love the temple so much. There are so many blessings we gain by going to the temple.

Wednesday: District Council was great! We talked about Christlike Attributes and how important it is to develop them. If we want to be witnesses of Christ we should strive to have His attributes. Finding time was neat because we had planned people in but it was like we had to have planned them in so we could actually go see some other people that were on the way. It was inspired!

Thursday: We had a lesson with some of our friends the Belkonens. It was awesome! We read the introduction to the Book of Mormon and you could feel the Spirit that was there. It was just awesome! We also had a lesson with our friend Jason too and we talked about the Book of Mormon as well. The Spirit was so strong too! We had some members there as well and they shared their testimonies of the Book of Mormon and it was just so powerful! It was such an amazing experience! Now let me explain my subject line. We were on our way home from a member lesson and we got a call from our Zone Leaders. One of the Zone Leaders told me to had the phone to Sis Cluff and then he said "Sis Cluff will you tell Sis Twede she's training next transfer" AHHHHHHHHHHH!! Yup I'm training! I'm so scared, excited, nervous and all the things! 

Friday: So because I got a trainers call I went down to the mission office with another sister in my zone who got a trainers call as well and had a meeting with most of the trainers. It was so awesome though! We got to see all the new missionaries coming in and we talked about how important a good trainer is (no pressure haha). It was a really good meeting and it helped calm my nerves a little. So that was most of the day. By the time we got home it was about 6pm so we went and visited a member family and then did weekly planning the rest of the night.

Saturday: GENERAL CONFERENCE!!  First off Elder Holland is amazing and when he starts off Conference you know it's going to be good! We watched with a member family and that was so fun! I absolutely loved everything that was talked about. I'm so excited for the changes that are being made and the temples that are on their way! I love the focus of the Savior and making Him the center of our lives. That is so important for these coming days so start today!

Sunday: Another amazing day of Conference. We went to another member's house for it and had such a good time. I'm so sad it over and I'm already pumped for next Conference! President Nelson leaving everyone on a cliffhanger! We had dinner with the Millards and we just talked about Conference the whole time and all the things that were talked about. I am so grateful we have a prophet to help guide us through these troubling times.

Well, that was pretty much the week folks. I just want to tell you how important it is for us to heed the words of our leaders. Danger is all around us and it's only getting worse so we must listen to our leaders and do the things they ask of us without hesitation. We must make Christ the center and focus of our lives so that when the danger comes in we can stand firm and fight back. I know President Nelson is called of God and I know that if we follow his words we need not fear. I love the gospel and the strength it gives us everyday of our lives. I love you all and hope y'all have a great week!!
