Hey Everyone!

Last week we didn't really get to work in our area. A lot of zone leader stuff. We had mission leadership council on Wednesday. It was awesome we talked a lot about baptizing monthly and with that setting monthly goals. It was received very well on Friday at zone training meeting. All day Thursday we planned for Zone training meeting and we did our weekly planning. We realized with the new monthly goal thing we had to get new planners for our zone, so we drove to the mission home to pick them up and got to have a little bit of dinner with the Hall's. It was pretty cool. Then on Friday like I said ZTM went well, and the rest of Friday and half of Saturday we were looking for new apartments for the 3 areas we are opening in our zone. We are splitting 3 more wards so 4 wards will have 2 sets of missionaries.

On Sunday we had Krishawn's baptism, it was awesome! She was so ready and the spirit there was very strong. That's basically what happened last week. We only got to work in our area for like a day as far as finding time goes. We found a new investigator so that was cool.

1 Nephi 19:9 "And the world, because of their iniquity, shall judge him to be a thing of naught." What a heart wrenching statement and I have seen this to be so true on my mission. There are so many people who start swearing at you when you talk about Jesus. They’re like who cares about Him. Well in Alma 7:7 "For behold, I say unto you there be many things to come; and behold, there is one thing which is of more importance than they all-for behold, the time is not far distant that the redeemer liveth and cometh among His people." Alma knew that there would be many great events in this world. Finding America, the splitting of the atom, the creation of the computer and all similar technologies but none of them could compare to the greatest event in history, The Atonement of Jesus Christ. I know that the Atonement of Jesus Christ is real. All other doctrine would be meaningless if it did not exist. It gives us hope and strength in our lives.

I love you guys.

Love Elder Larman.
