Jóu sàhn, múihgo yàhn 早晨, 每個人 Good morning, everyone! It's 丁姊妹 back again! This week has been awesome!! On Friday we had zone conference! Sister Steiner and I had to wake up at 5 and then start driving at 5:50 so we could get down to Casper and get our car washed an hour before the meeting started because I had to rehearse for the musical number. So it was pretty early and we were quite tired but we made it! Elder Danielson and I went through the piece just two or three times and then we went to join the others in the main room. I had to retune to the piano so that was annoying but you know, musician life. Once conference started, it was really good! We talked about faith, obedience, sacrifice, and blessings and how they're all connected. We got to share our thoughts and some scriptures about each word and it was great. We also got to go into groups to discuss. President Palmer encouraged that a pair of sisters be in each group because sisters bring new insight into conversatio...

Where are you, Dan?

  Léihdeih hóu!! I hope everyone has had a blessed week this week! It's been another eventful week for me here as a Pavillion missionary! You won't believe what's all happened! Well we got to start covering the Sunset Park ward starting on Wednesday! Its been busy but we found out that the best way to go about it is to divide the work up into days. So we're going to be in Pavillion on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and then in Riverton on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays and our Sundays will alternate. Currently we've just been trying to meet people in Riverton. We usually will look at the area around where we have lessons and see who lives there in area book and then we'll just stop by and see them. 4/5 times they haven't been home but we've met a few people! It's also just been nice to be in an actual neighborhood again with GRASS and TREES instead of dirt roads and cows and far spread houses. Of course we will still be seeing that too but it...

  Léihdeih hóu! It's Sister DelHoyo or Dīng jímuih back with my weekly update! This week has been crazy!! We'll start off with Wednesday because that was a busy day haha. We had to wake up a bit earlier than usual because we offered to make breakfast for the Methodist church in our area! The church usually has free breakfast and lunch for seniors on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and Sister Steiner has gone a few times so she knows the Pastor and his wife Candi (sweetest woman ever). We went in for breakfast on the Friday before and then just offered to make breakfast for them next time and they gladly agreed. So we made French toast! It was easy enough, we had a bunch of eggs at home from members who give us them, and then cinnamon, and Candi provided the bread. Everyone at the church loved it and Candi kept telling us what a blessing it was that we did that for them. That was just the beginning of the day though. That evening we had to drive 4 hours down to Cheyenne so we c...

Léihdeih hóu!! I bet you were all wondering where my email was on Saturday haha. Well surprise!!! Here in the Fort Collins mission, pday is on Tuesdays. If you've emailed or messaged me on another day, just know that I am receiving and reading everything, I'm just not allowed to answer until my pdays haha.  But I'm sure you just want to hear about how everything has been this past week and a half so here it is! On Tuesday morning I flew out from LAX to Denver and I was the only missionary on the plane. It was cool though because I sat next to a really nice man and he talked to me a bit about the Book of Mormon. He saw me take out my quad and was like "oh is that your Bible?" And I said "these are my scriptures yes". Then later he asked me about the book I was reading in (Alma) because he didn't recognize it. I told him it was from the Book of Mormon and he was like "oh okay". He saw me marking scriptures and made a comment over how impresse...
