Zone Conference

Everything continues to go well in the mission feild.  Time is flying! I can't beleive its the 25th already! I'm almost 6 months out! I can definitely do this 3 more times:)

Things as district leader are going really well.  I enjoy serving there.  We will be having DL training Thursday and Friday.  I am looking forward to this because I have been District leader for 9 weeks without having any traning!   Still no snow yet, just a lot of rain!  I love you all!  Elder Bowen

"Luck Is when Preparation Meets Opportunity"

So we thought that last week was good In teaching but this past week was even better.  We broke a Zone Record (or at least within the past 7 months because we don't know about furthur back than that) for the amount of lessons taught in a week!  We hit 30 and are hoping to do it again this week.  Time flies when you are busy and having fun!

Happy New Year!

This picture is of one of the pretier sunsets over the river that we have had... 
I can't wait to travel to the coast after the mission and take pics!

New Years for me was good.  It didn't feel the same as all the other new years but it was definitely a good way to start one being on a misson.  2011 is the Long haul because the last 5 months went by quick and then the last 8 months in 2012 will go quick but 2011 is the full year! Im sure it will go quick though!
 
Our area is progressing amazingly! we have been very blessed to have a TON of people to work with and a lot of sucess as well. Cool story... last week we were weekly planning and we had discussed a woman who hadn't been to church in a long time and we were going to go over to her house and see if her children were baptized and if we could teach them.  Probably 10 min later we got a phone call from that same woman and she said that she wanted to start coming to church again and that she wanted her kids to be baptized as soon as possible!  We will start teaching them soon and I'll let you know how it goes.
