Dear Family and Friends,

Shout out to my trainer Elder Wendell who got engaged last week!:)

Here are some things that happened this week:

We got a new Bishopric! I'm excited because the new Bishop was the ward mission leader 
for three years and he's a great guy so he should be able to help the missionary work a lot.

We had a Zone Training Meeting (ZTM) and it was great. We learned about the law of increasing returns and how it relates to working with members. Sometimes blessing don't come for a long time, or a very long time, and the work is just a daily grind that seems to never yield fruit nearly equal to our efforts. But eventually something clicks and then the blessings just pour down from heaven and things just keep getting better and better at an increasing rate. I know that even though working with members can be difficult and seemingly pointless at time, but I also know that the Lord has commanded us to do so and He will not let our efforts go wasted. 

Elder Kane and I sang a duet to How Firm A Foundation at ZTM and it was a lot of fun! He sang the bass notes while I sang the melody. After ZTM most of us Elders treated ourselves to Hibachi at N.D. Asia. Hibachi is where the chefs cook your food in front of you while doing a bunch of fancy tricks.

Elder Beeson and I started to sing a Hymn in comp study every day and it's pretty fun and humorous because it's really only a thing Sisters do:)

We had interviews with our mission President and that was splendid as always. My mission President is such a stud:)

We had a great lessons with our new investigator a recent convert and also another investigator this week! We are going to try and put our new investigators on date for baptism! 

Have a great week everyone!!
Love,
Elder Adair
