Great day with the Surprise and Buckeye/Goodyear Zones on Tuesday this week!
We had a full day of trainings and discussion and time for them to really work on some skills trainings!
The morning was spent in some review, some new training and counsel from President Taylor and President Allen from the Stake Presidency.
We had our health lesson along with comic relief from our Assistants Elders Alvis and Barrett who love to ham it up!!
President Taylor loves to get in on the act with his "Rusty Hacksaw" that he is not afraid to use to take care of those pesky injuries!
Lunch is a highlight, with time to socialize and enjoy great home-cooked food from the ward Sisters! Oh how we appreciate them for doing this so we can focus on training and teaching!!!
We thank them with our "Armies of Helaman" rendition, then our Mission Fight Song!!!
We celebrated August and September birthdays and had fun with that!
After lunch we had a couple musical numbers including our own Elder Rivas singing Amazing Grace (It was amazing!)
And a large group from the other zone that was equally incredible...so much talent in these missionaries and so much testimony shared in song!
We then opened the theme of Planning with the jar of gravel and rocks with that great object lesson of fitting in the big, high priority things first and then the small things naturally fit in around them so you can get everything done that you need to.
We love facilitating the skills practice times of our day. Here, Elder Barrett lovingly listens to a companionship. Our Assistants are models of how to be helpful, building and non-judgemental. They are great examples to President and I.
After a great day of learning...we learned that three of us had worn navy cotton skirts. It was not a key learning, but it was fun nonetheless!
