I'm really not sure what time we will be able to call on sunday. Probably after Church sometime. We cover two wards. and the first ward meets at 9 and the second one meets at 1, but we are an hour ahead over here from you. uhm but we dont stay all three hours of the meeting unless we have an investigator there. Sorry I can't be more specific, my companion doesnt know what time we will be calling either. That's awesome, Daniel is old. haha dont tell him I said that. Im glad he is liking his Job. I dont think there really is a secret to cooking the steaks other than this, watch them carefully and dont overcook them. Rare is the best. You're welcome for the letter. Thats good to hear that you are having a good time teaching. I got you a Mother's Day Card, Hopefully it will make it over b4 mothersday! I hope you have a wonderful Mother's day Mom. Cause you are the best. I remember you wrote to me in a letter, or was it a card?, when I was in the mtc I read it. And i remember you said you Hope I realize the love the lord has for me, and you said it is important that I develop my own relationship with him. And that brings me to me next topic. we had Zone Conference last friday and it was absolutely phenonomal. President Christison is so awesome. I have only known him for a few months, and Ive only seen and talked to him a couple of times but I love him a lot. And I am going to miss him when he is released and we get a new mission president. But the Highlight of Zone Conference was a Silent lesson we had. We all came to the chapel completely quietly with no one talking. And we were instructed from slides on a projector about what we needed to do. The hole thing was all about helping us develop our own personal relationship with the savior and feel his love. It was so amazing. I felt His Love For me more than I ever have b4. It was so beautiful. And I have developed my own relation ship with him. I know Christ and Heavenly Father care about me very very much, and Know me better than I even know myself. I will write more about it in my next letter but it was so wonderful. I know that there is no greater thing, nor more joyful thing I could be doing with my life right now, than serving the Lord.
I too have memorized a few songs. Songs truly do have a great power of inviting the spirit. I think My favorite song, or atleast one of them, I have a lot, that invites the spirit is the Words of Joseph Smith's First Prayer, to the melody of Come Thou Fount(which isnt in the hymnbook). But It has to be sung well, if it sounds bad it wont have the same effect.
