Welcome, Sister Splain!

 
We have just recently welcomed Sister Spain to the mission. She is from
Stockton, California and will be serving in the LDS Employment Resource Center.
She, along with three other senior sisters, work in the center and  
 do a great service to many, many people who are seeking employment.


 

Interviews - October 2012

Over the past few weeks we have been doing interviews.
As President Black interviewed each missionary personally, I spent the time
talking with each district about the importance of loving yourself,
loving your companion, and loving your mission.
Before each group left I tried taking a picture of each district in their
true missionary form....then some of them went crazy on me!

Red Rock District Meetings

Every Tuesday morning District Meetings are held throughout the mission
. Every Tuesday morning we attend a District Meeting in one of the zones.
This morning we attended the Sandstone District Meeting in the
Las Vegas Zone. It was a great meeting with lots of discussion
and some great role plays.






Role playing is such a good way to learn and to improve our
teaching skills. The missionaries practice teaching with each other as if
it were a real situation. Often times inspiration comes as they
are teaching each other, that helps them to understand how to
teach a particular concept of the gospel to some particular investigator.

The Morning Program!

Part of the morning program is to get up at 6:30 a.m. and exercise for 30 minutes. On this morning
the Sandstone District met us and we walked around the park and also the neighborhood!
We had as much fun talking as we did walking!
