hey, so like...this week was super fast. We had meetings all week and then GC on top of that. So it was fast. 1 investigator came to church...I guess it's better than 0! :) General Conference was really good. I liked all the talks. I took 10 pages of notes. The music was my favorite. Listening to the choir and the organ was the only time I really felt the Spirit, I think. I really like the organ. Especially after watching Clay Christiansen play. He's good. They're all good. I wanna see them compared to Don. I bet he's better. haha. I'm going to study and practice organ a lot when I get home. I'm going to get keys to the church somehow and just go play for hours. Yeah. that's the life. :)

2 more weeks until transfers. I have no idea what might happen. Missionaries are already talking about their predictions. Whatever transpires, I know God is in it. I know I'll be in the right place. Whether that be planting seeds or harvesting, it mattereth not. 

I remember about a year ago, Elder Mercy and I were still companions. He was about to go home. I was still green. I didn't know what was going on. Even after a few months of being a missionary. Being in the Deaf program allows you to live a different life than the ordinary missionary. Being a Zone Leader for almost 6 months has shown me what a "normal" missionary does. It's fun. Well, I guess ZLs aren't really normal are they? I'm not normal, that's proven 100%. 

I'm trying to think of an entertaining story I can tell... hmmm...I'm practicing an arrangement of "the lord is my shepherd" for a stake conference with Elder Packer (of the 70). The leadership in the church here in Riverside is well aware that I can play the piano. There will be singers...I think I already mentioned this last week...or the week before. Anyway, it's been on my mind. I love the song. It's a good arrangement. Usually I dislike arrangements that change keys, but it's not too hard and it sounds really nice. I'm glad I have been able to use my talent lately. It gives me hope that when I go home and find hours to myself, I'll have something constructive and beneficial to do.
