It's been a fun week this past week. Elder Flora and I were able to teach the combined Young Men, Young Women and it was awesome! We set up a maze type thing throughout the church and had people go through it like they were going through life. The first part was a set path that represented the first 8 years of life where your parents let you know what to do. Then you were baptized and received the Gift of the Holy Ghost and then told to go through the rest of their "life", which was going through the hallways of the church, while getting through the "trials" (chairs obstacles) which were there. We gave them some time to get used to the "voice of the Spirit", who was another person who would whisper as the Spirit does. Everyone else who was there was a distraction. It was fun to see how people reacted in different situations. Then we taught about how we need to listen to the Spirit in order to know when to help people learn about the Church.
That's what we need to do to. Listen to the Spirit to get over the trials of life and to help others do the same. That is why it is so important to have the Spirit with you at all times.
I love you all and hope you're doing good.

#1 - We have a Dunkin' Donuts in our area! Just thought I'd let you know. But sadly it's 16 miles away, just like everything else in our area.
#2 and #3 are of Elder Winward on the left and Elder Zollinger on the right. They look like brothers.
#4 that's my desk and all my stuff that I've collected hanging up on the wall.
