This week we had Zone Conference. It was about faith and what is expected of us as missionaries. He spoke of faith and how the Lord blesses us when we do as instructed. We have been busy because of it. We are expected to speak to 20 people a day and find 12 new people a week. We are teaching up to 8 lessons a day, and have very little time to breath. I am starting to pick up heat rash again. The work is hard but it is sweet too. It is a good problem to have more work than ability to do it.
The other day we had an appointment cancelled so we went to eat lunch. After I had ate my piece of chicken my companion noticed what we thought were maggots on his chicken. I looked at my bone and discovered two very small ones. Let's say I didn't finish my rice. The woman was angry we didn't finish! Ghana makes me want to pull out my hair sometimes! Other times it makes me want to jump for joy. We have been teaching quite a few families lately and to see them work toward baptism is amazing.
I am doing well. I love each of you!

| We received this in the mail today from a church member in Mountain View, Arkansas. It is a laminated newspaper article showing Conner and the missionaries serving at the local food bank. It was a fun surprise to receive. The people in Arkansas will always hold a special place in Conner's heart and he is grateful for his time there! |
