The next day, Wednesday, we had a meet the President
conference in which our entire Zone as well as 2 other zones came to
Urdaneta for a quick zone conference. President Monahan spoke and
taught us about the Gospel. He talked a lot about obedience
and prayer. It was really good, we are really glad to have him here.
He is really good at the scriptures. He knows and can quote a lot of
scriptures. He also mentioned that sometimes he will come work with the
missionaries for teaching appointments. He
didn't say just Zone leaders or District leaders, but all the
missionaries, so he may come work with us sometime. That will be fun.
This week I have seen a lot of part member families making
progress. There are several families in particular that I was told that
the nonmember was very unreceptive. In each case we went to the house,
spoke with the nonmember and asked them to join
with us for our short lesson. Every time the nonmember joined with us
and as far as we saw was receptive. Of course it is only one visit, but
in each case I was told these people wouldn't even face the
missionaries or join in discussion. So far, every
time we have gotten return appointments and it is looking as if we will
have the chance to complete some of these part member families.
Sometimes the part member family is only part member because the
missionaries didn't focus much on the family and left one
member behind, not so much because that person is unreceptive.
