Conferencias de Navidad

 

Ok so this week was pretty crazy but also a lot of fun and I learned a lot.

So this week we had two multi-zone conferences for the end of the year and for Christmas.

So we were busy getting presents ready for all the missionaries and the end of the year trainings.  Monday we took a six hour bus ride to Salina Cruz and the entire afternoon we were setting up the decorations in the Church.

Tuesday we had the conference the entire day and it went super well!  It was super spiritual and a lot of fun.  I shared my testimony at the end of the conference because I'm going home this transfer so that was pretty crazy.  After that though everyone acted like I was already going home.  They were like "bye Elder Lacey thanks for everything."  And I was like, "Hey I still have a month left!"  That night we were in a taxi and I felt pretty awful.  We got home and I ended up throwing up all night   

The next morning we had another 6 hour bus ride to go back to Oaxaca that I was not looking forward to at all.  But we went to the doctor so I could get medicine so I wouldn't throw up on the bus.  He gave me the prescription that would work faster so he injected me in my behind   Also I had to get injected for the next two days so let's just say Elder Gamez and I are very good buddies now 

Thursday afternoon we set up for the zone conference and got everything ready and Friday we had the other zone conference.  We were running around a lot and I definitely have more gray hair now but everything went well!  I am so grateful to be a missionary!  I learn so much everyday and I know that Jesus Christ lives!  He knows us and wants to help us.  His arms are always open.  I'm sure of it!
