Hmm..about being sick, lets see...I've had a sre throat and a minor cough over the time that ive been out, but thats about it, nothing serious. My companions have been sick a few times though. I'm sure missionaries do give blessings to the sisters, I haven't though. I haven't really been around many sister missionaries since I've been out.
Yeah, We've got a trunk or treat coming up this saturday, so it looks like we're both kinda on the same page with that. We're also gonna have a baptism this saturday, I can't wait! She asked me to baptize her, so I'm a little nervous but excited at the same time :)
I'm not sure what we do for the holidays...for the fourth of july we mainly just stayed at home, so i'm sure thats the same thing we'll do for halloween. We kinda want to dress up as something..not sure what though.

I have'nt had the chance to Baptize yet. But its all good, I'm sure it"ll come soon, as long as my companion and I continue to work hard. We have a couple potential baptisms coming up shortly, but I don't want to talk about it, in case things happen to fall through. I'll let ya know when it comes.\
Recently we've found multiple new people to teach, and so far so good...I guess only time will tell how serious they all are though. And For lessons...I'm not sure what I like to teach best. If the spirits there and touches their hearts, thats the kind of lesson I enjoy the most. Because regardles of what I say or how good I teach, it doesn't mean much unless the spirits there.
And for visuals.. I don't use visuals all that often, but sometimes I like to use a rubics cube in teaching about the restoration, it helps to keep them focused. Anyway, I should probably go now.

General Conference was awesome, I'm glad they talked so much about missionary work, I hope it will be a good boost for the ward I'm serving in. As for my favorite talks I'm not really sure...i don't have my notes with me.. I do remember something President Eyring said though, He mentioned the importance of hard work and going above and beyond the expectation. I really enjoyed that and it stuck out to me cuz I feel that I needed some motivation, not that I wasn't working hard, but it help me want to do even better and not worry about what people say. This week I talked to every person I possibly could, it didn't matter what they were doing or how awkward it would seem, i talked to them anyway and it felt good. Our mission goal is to talk to 140 people about the gospel every week. In the past few months we haven't met that goal and its been frustrating but this week we talked to 164 people!! it was awesome.
