Zone conference was really great. Our senior couple just finished
their mission and we won't have one for about 4 more months. President Mehr really stressed obedience. He shared D&C 88 and talked
about light. How the light of Christ is actually light and we only
receive more of his light when we are obedient. That is an eternal law. It is the light that we have in us that will save us and exalt us. It all comes from obedience. I'm still reading that scripture and taking
it bit by bit. What cool doctrine.
It was great and I feel like I have this chance by moving to really assess all of my teaching skills. I fell I need to work on my teaching skills. I have just been focusing on the French so much that I have been losing my teaching talent. But I went teaching with sister Compton and she gave me some really good things to go off of. I think all missionaries go through this phase. Understanding why we are exactly obedient and then really applying everything! I am so excited and I can just feel my motivation from Heavenly Father.

It was great to see my friends at conference and I went on an hour long run with sister Compton in the morning and we got kind of lost. It was really fun!
I feel this new motivation to be better. To do better. To work harder and to be more diligent and obedient. It's
so great. I just memorized Alma 38: 5-15 and it is such a good scripture. I
have really been trying to use all of those things and transform into a
better person.
Last night for our first day here we went to a members house Sister V and her family. We only have two member families in our area. Sister V is AMAZING!!!!!! Her husband is unfortunately less active but
he is really nice! She helped us move apartments and then picked us up
for family home evening. We taught about the Holy Ghost and played the game of signs. We talked about how the Holy Ghost is a still small voice that
we can sometimes miss. Then we sang "I'll go where you want me to go" at
the top of our lungs while her husband played his giant island drum. Then she made bokits!! Which is native to Guadeloupe. It's like a scone
that they stuff with eggs and cheese and bacon. Super good!! Well, I love you all. Remember to be exactly obedient to the prophet and to the commandments of God.
I love you!!!!
