Changes and a bunch of meetings

Well, yesterday the mission leaders gave the changes for the transfers for the coming 6 weeks.  Elder Morales is assigned to La Tolita in the Coast.  My new companion is Elder Nielson.  To be honest I don't know him because as I write this letter for all of you he is on his way traveling to Otavalo.

This week we had a lot fun this week!  Starting Tuesday we had a special training with President Richardson and his wife and as well the assistants to the President. During this training we learned to give commitments better to help the people come unto Christ more efficiently.  Wednesday we had a special mission conference.  This was for all of the world.  But because of transmission errors we were not able to receive. Thursday we had our normal weekly district and zone meetings.  In this meeting we receive every week a small training on how to better an aspect of missionary work.  

Friday we had a leaders meetings. The leaders of the zone get together every week to discuss the progress of the missionaries in the zone.  I am not part of this group but because Elder Morales was District Leader he had to be.  

We had a fun week of meetings!  

Yesterday in the La Compañia Ward I gave a talk in Sacrament Meeting.  It was my first in the mission.  It went pretty good if I would say.  It had a topic of missionary work, teaching by the spirit. 

This past week I had the opportunity to ponderize 2 Nephi 32:4. Here I understood that we have all the words of the prophets and scriptures, and if we do not seek an understanding of what they mean, well, we won't understand what it means.  But I understood that it is important to understand the words of the prophets and scriptures with this knowledge we will be brought into the light.
