Thank you for the packages. They are great. We are having a Halloween trunker treat party on Friday. We are going to see if we can take people on chapel tours during it. I went on three exchanges this week and had a way sweet experience in district meeting. The focus of the meeting was "teach people not lessons." Basically stop and listen to the spirit on what to say. During the practice teaching part of it I could totally tell when what was being said was directed from the spirit and when the teacher was just teaching by his own knowledge. Ever since that district meeting I have been making an effort to listen to the spirit during lessons. I've got to say, it is a whole lot easier in practice teaching than in real teaching. I have still had some really great experiences. We had a lesson where we learned tons about where our investigator is at. She really opened up and shared how she was feeling. Then we had a member invite their friend to hear the gospel, so we went over and talked to her and her husband. It all started with a Sentsy candle party. They are both way excited to be part of the church and to follow Christ example. They want to be baptized on November 20th. They came to all three hours of church and we have another lesson with them today. They are so ready for the gospel. God has really prepared them. Well, I've got to get going but I love you and hope all is well.
Love,
Elder Hurst.
