This week was a much better week than the first here in Corvallis!  Even though this was finals week for the spring term, we have been able to have some lessons and find some new people.  

On Tuesday we had 5 lessons set up with people and 4 of them cancelled which was a bummer but we found several new people and we were able to have 4 lessons still with different people.  

Wednesday was a pretty average day.  We taught a couple lessons and did a lot of walking around campus. 

Thursday was a really good day.  We were able to go down to Eugene and have zone conference.  There were six zones at this conference and it was President Russell's last one before he goes home.  First it was cool to see a bunch of the old friends from all the past areas but also it was just super spirit filled.  The talks were really good and they ranged from "listening in teaching" to "breaking bad habits".  Probably the best parts were the musical numbers though.  You could just feel the spirit so strong it makes you want to tear up.  I was not about to start tearing up though so I made sure not to let that happen.  haha  It was a great meeting though.  

Friday we didn't have district meeting because of zone conference but we still had new missionary training which is fun.  The new missionaries in our zone are really good already so they pretty much train Elder Henley and I.  lol

Saturday was definitely the best day of the week though!  The First Ward Elders were contacting in their area and found a young couple, Jacob and Anissa, who asked them to come back so they referred them to us.  We went and saw them Saturday and it was a phenomenal lesson!  They invited us in and we all sat down and they started asking us question after question.  So we taught them the Restoration which answered many of their questions.  They had a bunch more questions about our missions and also the plan of salvation and church so we were there for two hours just teaching and answering questions!  I asked them what they had felt as we taught them and they both said, "I just feel like this is right.  I just feel so peaceful and warm."  I was just amazed.  I knew I could feel the spirit as we went through the lesson and it was beautiful to hear that they did too!  We invited them to church and they both came Sunday which also went so well.  Sacrament was really good and they had a beautiful musical number and Bishop Glasmen spoke and they loved it. Luckily Elder Henley and I taught second hour too and the lesson went so so well. They both added their ideas and testimony.  It's just a beautiful thing to see people take steps like that!

Sunday evening we went to Bishop Glasmen's for dinner and it was a good time with all of his family too!  

Definitely seeing some miracles since we have been here which is beautiful because Elder Henley and I cannot get this area going on our own!  Much love fam.
