And it was also Elder Lee's in our district on the same day as sister Davis so we did some b-day celebrating this week. It was alot of fun as Sister Coyle definitely spoiled us more than she needed to and we have great members her in our ward that I just love. Thank you for the birthday gifts and wishes I appreciate them alot.   We had an awesome experience on Monday evening that I wanted to share.

They are alot more realistic and more effective for what they are wanting to teach than the last district. We were told they would be implementing this stuff in the MTC in May of next year.  It was great to get the training we did for those 4 days and to learn things we have already learned...

Change Hi Friends and Family,   This past week has been pretty busy and alot has happened. I am going to start by telling you what happened most recently and then go backwards.  This past weekend I have had the privilege of experiencing alot of change here on the mission. I found it ironic Randy you mentioned I would see it as you where right, it is a world wide mission change. We had a mission meeting on Saturday night with all the missionary's who are district leaders, zone leaders and trainers. So there was only 3 sister's present at this meeting as we are all 3 training this transfer, as they consider that leadership.  They are making mission changes with the mission world wide so that zone conferences and interviews will all be different now. And are implementing leadership training meetings, for me this means i get to attend a leadership training meeting for the next 4 days while they introduce all the new material.  I am interested to see how it will al...
