Conference with Elder Zwick

We had a great week! I think I forgot to tell you that yesterday we had a special mission conference with Elder Zwick and Mike Hemingway, director of proselyting worldwide... It was intense. All about iPads and using them properly. We have been working with our family of six pretty closely this last week. They came to our stake conference but all they talked about was ward councils. I felt confident though at the time that if the spirit
was there they would be able to feel it and they could get a completely different message. I hope that worked. We have organized for the family to come to the temple for a tour tomorrow and they are really excited. They're recent convert nephew will be helping them get there and we are stoked! The dad called us the other night and said he was reading in the Book of Mormon and as he finished a chapter he got the impression to call one of his nieces and invite her to meet with the missionaries. 

She responded that she would be open to learning so he called us at 9:50 to set something up. The niece's boyfriend then called our investigator and asked what the church's name was and where the church could be found and if they could go on Wednesday nights. As you can imagine, we were pretty excited about that too and we made it clear that he was acting under the inspiration of the spirit. They'll be baptized a week from Saturday! Other than that there's not much worth mentioning. We knocked on an old man's door the other day and as we were talking he fell backward for no apparent reason. We helped him up and went on our way. We are going to have 10 companionships together for a giant p-day activity today so there is going to be some intense volleyball! We received instruction that we can read emails from home any day of the week so feel free to send on.

Love you guys!

Elder Willard
