This weeks big news was Zone Conference. The Killeen (zone I'm in) and Waco zones had an all day meet in with President Ames and the APs. They focused on the mission culture which is: consecrated missionaries and obeying with exactness. Its pretty self explanatory but by following we will be blessed greatly! We also talked about CPR leads to RPC which means Church Prayer Read leads to Real Personal Conversion. By doing those three things the investigator will progress. And by doing CPR they want us to explain that the investigator are repenting and receiving blessings. Most people don't realize that they are repenting by doing those three things. But that's easier said then done. They also talked about the mission mantra which is Find! Teach! Baptize! and Retain! This Conference was a good wake up call and to recommitting myself. I see why they have this meetings so that missionaries get back on track and refocus on the work. It defiantly worked for me!! 

 I am called of God. My authority is above that of kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my master and He has chosen me to represent Him--to stand in His place, to say and do what He Himself would say and do if He personally were ministering to the very people to whom He has sent me. My voice is His voice, and my acts are His acts; my doctrine is His doctrine. My Commission is to do what He wants done; To say what He wants said; to be a living modern witness in word and in deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous Latter-day work. 

                                                                                    How great is my calling!
