Letter 8/17/12

Well to start off by giving y'all some info on this past week.  It has been busy with all the meeting stuff.  We had zone council which was Tuesday all day.  Friday we had our zone conference which went super good the spirit was strong and the reason being is it was on a very good subject The Book of Mormon so everyone had another spiritual witness that it is true so it was pretty cool.  Sister Irion's daughter just got back from her mission and she gave a training at the conference as well.  She had some cool experiences on her mission.  My training was on gaining confidence in the Book of Mormon.  It seems we offer it to so many people and it is the number 1 turned down message.  I gave advice on how to gain peace, confidence and strength.  It went well.  Well for some teaching experiences this week we went to this guy's house named Chris.  He is Pentecostal so he gets excited when he feels the spirit so he kind of scared the crap out of us.  We taught him with boldness and just laid the law.  We also had a good Sunday this week.  We had a member from the YSA bring 2 of his friends and we taught them after church.  One of them was really smart and had some deep questions.  We answered them well and confounded all doctrine to his needs.  We left him with a Book of Mormon promise.  Another Chinese guy is now coming to church.  There are now 2 Chinese investigators and they don't even know each other both are in the sisters area so bummed about that.  But to make up for it a couple of different members referred their friends to us and 1 might be promising.  She has 3 kids but all are under the age of accountability.  The Rivera's a spanish family invited us over for dinner tonight and to talk to their neighbors.  Well the neighbors did not show but hopefully we'll get a hold of them.  It has been forever since I spoke in spanish so I'm pretty rusty I imagine.  Well this is my life at the moment.  I might be out of here in 10 day's but who knows so here is the short weekly letter.  Have a great week.  Love Elder Robison
