:: DISTRICT LEADERSHIP TRAINING::

Hey everyone! How are you? I'm doing great and loving my Mission this week. One of the members from the ward I am serving in is going on his Mission now to Cananda. The sky is still sunny about half of the week. I thought it would be more cloudy. Someone in our neighboring area got Baptized in the Puget Sound. It was great! That was the first Baptism I ever got to see in the ocean. Our companionship is doing great together so far. My trainer is going back home after this transfer which is sad but he'll probably like it. We had a meeting with our Mission President and it was great too. We talked a lot about relying on Jesus Christ, the Atonement, how to teach, and you cant teach beyond your own conversion. Sister Weaver had two missionaries fill up a cup with water according to how perfect they felt that day. The first missionary filled his up all the way.  The second missionary filled his cup up about 3/5th of the way and then Sister Weaver filled it up the rest of the way.  This object lesson was to show us how we can become perfect through the Atonement.   After the lesson on how the Atonement helps our work become perfect; I found Scriptures this week on how much God cares about us. 3Nephi 24:15-18, 3Nephi 22: 10-14, and Alma 37: 36-37. Hope you all have a great day!
