I speak the celestial language

Greetings, dear family and friends. How did you like the Church's general
conference? The sessions that I was able to see were great. The only
one I missed was Sunday afternoon. I'm going to have to watch that
soon.

We had an appointment with our Afghani orthopedist. We taught the
restoration. I think it went pretty well. He was happy about the new
Farsi translation of the Book of Mormon. Apparently it's a lot better.
We invited him to come to general conference to hear the prophet and
apostles speak. He came Sunday and really liked it.

We met with our old German friend this past Thursday. Last week we had
taught revelation through prayer and he said he would try to pray. We
asked him if he had prayed and he said, "Yeah I prayed and you know what
happened?" He said, "I said amen and I immediately got
goosebumps! I didn't believe what happened so I tried it again and the
same thing happened again!" We took this perfect opportunity to teach
him that he felt the Holy Ghost and what the Holy Ghost does for you.
We transitioned that into how we want to feel the Holy Ghost at all
times and receive revelation through church attendance. It went really well
and he said he would come to watch general conference. A member picked him
up and he came to the priesthood session. Probably really good for him
because they talked a lot about families.

I really liked Elder Hallstrom's talk on remembering that you are a
child of God. Elder Bednar did really well, too. I gotta be honest
though, President Uchtdorf killed it. German references aside, that
was a great pump-up talk.

Zone Training meeting this week in Neubrandenburg. Transfer calls come
Sunday night. We will see what the fate is for my last full transfer!
Bis nächste Woche!
