Transferred! 

Hey guys!  I haven't written in a couple weeks forgive me!!  A ton of stuff has happened and I don't know if i'm gonna be able to remember all of it.  First off, I'M GETTING TRANSFERRED!!  I have been in Sabina my whole mission, i'm gonna miss this little town!!  lots of good memories here in good ol Sabinas.  I'm excited to see more of Mexico though and have a better house haha.  My new area is called Zaragoza if you wanna look it up.  Its a little town in the middle of nowhere haha.  I'm super excited though.  Spanish is starting to come along!!  I am dreaming in Spanish off and on, and sometimes i get confused if someone is speaking English or Spanish, and my English is slowly getting worse.  I had to look in the dictionary the other day to see how to say something the right way  so that's been fun haha.  

We had zone conference a  couple weeks ago and that went super well!!  It was a really simple message but super powerful.  It was about faith and obedience, because faith and obedience are everything as a missionary.  If we don't have faith, we cant do anything, and if we aren't obedient, we aren't going to receive the blessings the lord has prepared for us.  Then we played volleyball as a zone and that was super fun!!  

I keep forgetting to say this, but one of our converts got the priesthood a couple weeks ago!! that was so amazing to see and made me so happy.  There really is nothing happier than helping other people come unto to Christ.  We have been teaching them about the temple and they are preparing to get married in the temple at the end of this year!!  I might be able to go to the temple with them depending on what area i'm in when they go!!  They are also interested in getting into family history work so that will be awesome!!  

That's pretty much all i've got for this week! I will have more to talk about next week when I get to my new area!!  Always remember that the little things make a huge difference!! Love to hear from you all!  conner.atkin@myldsmail.net
