Conference!

Family!

Not too much to say this week.  We were on the buses a lot this past week, so we had a lot of opportunity to talk to the people of Dayton.  We found a ton of people who were interested in having the missionaries come by, so the English missionaries in the area should have a pretty busy week this coming week!

E----'s mom came back from New Jersey to visit for a few days.  She brought her youngest son and her friend with her.  She has decided that she wants to be baptized here!  When she comes here to stay in a few months, she will be baptized here, as well as her youngest son and most likely her husband and friend as well!

General conference was really good!  I got to watch my first session in Spanish.  I haven't ever had anyone come to Conference before, but this time a bunch of the branch members came to watch the conference at the church with E----'s family.  Conference is much better in English.  Except when the speaker is speaking in his native language of Spanish.  When the Spanish speakers started speaking we went across the hall where the conference was broadcast in Spanish and listened to their talks without the English translation over the top.  That was pretty cool.  I especially enjoyed the talks by Elder Scott, Elder Robbins, Elder Klebingat, and Elder Eyring's talk in the priesthood session.  I received a lot of revelation for myself and for the work here in Dayton.

Hope you all have a great week!

Love,

Elder Foote
