Quarenta Horas 15

Isaac didn't actually write a main letter this week so here's excerpts from his letters to us (his parents):

[Brian went to a concert with two of his brothers and said he had fun, except for all the vaping]
Hahahaha I forgot vaping was a thing because that doesn't exist here.  Yeah it was a good zone conference; I felt the Spirit.  Yeah we had leaving testimonies which was good and fun [Brian asked if they have the missionaries leaving bear their testimony at the last zone conference before they leave].  It's sad to be leaving the mission.  I wish I could stay and extend it, but I can't because of the visa, and it seems like people want me home now anyways, so I guess the plan of God is perfect.

I got your primary class's letters and pictures; it was super nice.  I haven't been able to get a picture yet, but I will try to this week.  We are visiting an area again so it might be difficult to talk too much today.  However I am glad everyone is happy.  Actually this week I didn't have time to study Come Follow Me because I was super rushed, and usually it's just me on Sundays by myself [I think he means he studies it by himself on Sundays].  However I am studying the beginning of 3rd Nephi about wars and stuff and it just makes me really think about how stubborn some people are and how quick we are to forget the signs or symbols that God exists.  Don't know if that applies to anything in your life at the moment, but you know it's always good.  Hope you guys have a good rest of the week and I will be praying for you guys.

Isaac did end up writing again later that day so here's his letter:
This week was awesome again.  We were able plan a baptism for three people.  One of them is going to be baptized this week, and two next next week, and we also have 9 more people that we are teaching that have gone to church and are ready to be baptized, so I  am super pumped to be able to end the mission baptizing.  This week we had zone conference with everyone which was good.  It was the last one which was sad and so all of us leaving had to share our testimony about the mission and how it changed us so that was good.  We also had stake conference and Mission President came and talked. It was funny because he basically just talked up all the missionaries in the stake a ton and talked about how good we were which made us happy.  Also there was an area seventy that came and gave a pretty powerful talk about the widow of Nain which was good as well. I hope everyone is having fun back at home because I am having fun here.
Love,
Elder Holcomb
