Elder Cody Eddenfield: Zone Conference in Peoria

Hey Everyone!

This week was pretty good. We did a lot of stop by's, both former investigators and members. Pretty much no one was ever home, including the members, and if they were home the husband was always gone. So we're trying something new where we do this even try to get into their house, we just say that we are focusing on the plan of salvation and ask them if they know anyone who has had a death in the family, a baby, and stuff like that. We then try to work the name we get into a referral. It's worked so far, so that's good! We had a couple lessons with the Theobalds that went fairly well. they wouldn't commit to come to church but we're slowly but surely figuring out how to help them. The next day we dropped off one of the new Families and Temples pamphlets and asked her to read the page about the Temple Sealing and to do the additional study in the back, we hope that that is what they need. We also had Zone Conference on Wednesday and that was pretty good. We gained some new insight on working with members. It was in Peoria which is probably the place that looks the most like home that I've been to. There were just lots of hills and trees that made them look bigger, almost like mountains. We tried the new stuff we learned at Zone Conferences at some dinners we had and they worked really well! That's really everything exciting that happened this week. Not super eventful but some miracles definitely happened. Oh, yeah! Greg wants to take a break from learning right now but he says he's still interested in learning. So, we'll see what happens. In my studies I've been trying to connect scriptures from the Book of Mormon and the Bible so that they can become one in my hands. Pretty exciting stuff. That's pretty much it for this week! Make this week great and do those things that will bring God the most joy.

Love you all!
