It was a great week. The branch is doing
better and better, and we had a fantastic zone conference in Bucharest
this week. Not the whole zone went, just Galati and Constanta from our
zone. Iasi and Bacau will be going to Chisinau, so we got a weird split
this time.
It was really inspiring though. I
feel that there is a big change coming to the mission soon. The mission
culture is about to change for the better. Especially after our zone
leader conference call with President Ivory last night, I can see what
the future holds. When President Ivory's father was a mission president
in England, they went from 20 baptisms a month to 200. And we are going
to find the way to make that change here too. I feel the energy. We have
already seen big steps in how we work with members and total church
attendance has been on the rise.
We also had a
fantastic day at church. A gave a great talk on the sacrament, Sora
L did a great job, Elder D and I did a musical number (Joseph
Smith's first prayer, he sang I accompanied on the Piano) and we had a
visiting speaker from Ploiesti who brought a LOT to the meeting. He is a
returned missionary and knows his stuff.
T gave a fantastic Sunday school lesson on the Sermon on the Mount, and we
had the best discussion in priesthood that I have ever seen. Our less active member, came, participated, and had a great time. And we
had a very productive priesthood executive meeting after church. It was
my favourite Sunday so far in Galati.
Thanks for reading!
