Hey guys!
So we've had a lot of travelling this week. We were in Dublin for about half of it. Dublin is huge compared to Sligo. We were on exchanges with the zone leaders this week. There are a lot of Brazilians in Dublin so a lot of the missionaries there learn a bit of Portuguese to be able to communicate better.
We also had zone conference this week in the Dublin stake centre. It was entirely on the Book of Mormon. It was a sweet experience. President and Sister Donaldson, his counselor President Thompson and his wife, and the assistants all gave instruction on the Book of Mormon and how we can use it better in teaching and finding. I'm so grateful for the Book of Mormon. I know The Book of Mormon contains the fulness of the gospel am grateful that it is the tool of the harvest that we have been given in this dispensation. I am grateful for the precious truths it contains. I also learned from conference that President Nelson is coming to the UK in April. There is a broadcast that everyone in the UK and Ireland including all the missionaries will be watching.
We haven't gotten a chance to meet up with Ovis or Edna yet. I think we are planning to meet Ovis this next week. By the way, yesterday was Stake conference in Dublin. So it was a three hour drive there and back. Stake Conference was good though. President and Sister Donaldson were there along with Elder Johnson from the Europe Area Presidency. He was there to reorganise the stake presidency, I imagined it went a lot like the last stake conference back home. There were many testimonies shared and Elder Johnson spoke on the need to sustain our leaders which he explained is more than raising our hand at conference time.
I love you guys! Thank you for all your emails!
Elder Calley
