ZTM

So you know you're in a good mission when the general authority that was going to visit decided not to anymore because we're now the highest baptizing mission in Canada. So yeah our trip to Saskatoon this week got a little bit less interesting but I'm sure it'll be really good still. It's kindof a happy and a sad moment because we're the highest baptizing mission in Canada now but we're not getting a general authority coming anymore... It was funny when they announced that because they said there are probably a lot of you who didn't believe that this could happen and when they said that a few people raised their hands and pointed at themselves. It was the most fun I've had at a Zone Training Meeting. I was also able to see one of the missionaries from my first couple of transfers there which was fun. :) 

Another great thing that happened from this ZTM was we got the Easter cards for the Easter initiative this year. There are some great videos that have gone out again for this found at followhim.mormon.org To top it off Elder Tippets and Peck challenged us to a competition for that. It'll be a lot of fun :) 

A miracle for this week is we've had beautiful weather :) It's been above zero for almost a week now and almost all of the snow is melted. I've even been able to get out without a jacket. So all y'all down in Utah it's happening up here in Canada as well :) 

So I forgot about this but, this last week we were also able to make a trip out to a members restaurant about thirty minutes away. He's originally from Korea and came to canada a while back. But he made us some good burgers and wings. He also sent us home with a pizza. It was a good trip :) I'll be sending pictures of the water tower from the town he was in.

 

 

So this just shows how dumb I am when it comes to hunting. A couple weeks ago Elder Tippets and Peck were talking about wanting to go shed hunting on a p-day and this was the first dumb mistake I made :D I asked if they were going to be using a rifle or a bow to go shed hunting (mainly because it's against the rules to use a gun) and they started laughing at me... They then told me you don't go shed hunting with a gun it's looking for sheds. My second dumb mistake was not realizing that sheds were the antlers off of deer when they shed them in the winter. I didn't realize that until this week when they were talking about it again. So I have attached a picture of elder Stevens holding a "shed" to make fun of me :)
