Dear Family, How y'all been?!?! You all look so good in your pics that you are sending me! Seriously such an awesome family!!!!! It was an amazing Easter week this week. This week was sort of taken over by meetings. We spent almost an entire day at a zone conference. It was actually super neat. Im really loving all the meetings we have to learn and become better missionaries. One thing that our mission is really focusing on right now is boldness. Its actually something I really need to learn. Our president is amazing! He speaks to us with a lot of power and authority. He told us that boldness was not being annoying or even forceful, it was teaching the gospel with clarity and firmness. He said the way to develop that was be first, believing in the gospel, then having faith, then repenting, then feeling the Holy Ghost, then continuing with the process. It was basically the gospel of Jesus Christ. I thought it was interesting...
