Hey Mom!
All is well out here! Transfers are
coming up on the 20th so a week and a half and there's probably going to be a
change of some kind. Elder Schouten goes home in 2 transfers so that is weird,
who knows what will happen to us. There's a lot that has been learned here so
by next week I'll know what's happening right now anything could happen.
little possum friend at zone conference |
As far as my week goes it was
pretty good a little different. We had a zone conference training to prepare
for Thursday, so we naturally were putting it off till Tuesday and Wednesday to
flesh it all out and it was last Monday afternoon around 2:00, when we get a
call from the assistants and they said "hey Elder Schouten and Elder
Bakker is your training ready for zone conference?" we were all uh... no
haha and they said "well can it be ready to present at mission leadership
council tomorrow at 2:00?" .... haha we didnt have anything done for it
except a few thoughts we had the week before. We accepted and that night spent
hours creating this training and miracle after miracle helped us to pull it all
together with a 24 hour notice to have it presented. We had an Idea for a piñata
and thought hmm… piñatas are like $20... so we went to check it out to see if
it was affordable to use for our training and Kmart is having a clearance and
practically begged us to take these two big yellow truck piñatas for $2 a
piece... Ha like that happens everyday.
The training was great! We gave an
wonderful training on goal setting and "the most important thing" or
your purpose as a missionary and for our demonstration before we did the role
play we had a piñata to demonstrate how if we don’t have a "vision"
of want we are to achieve then we can't hit our target. It was fantastic! The
lord helped us really prepare for the training and I have never had preparation
or presentation of a training go so smoothly! Keep your eyes on the prize!
Love ya! Elder R.A. Bakker
