And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

– Mark 8:34.

Hello everyone!

Wasn't General Conference great? I love how everyone, if they pay attention, gets something from it. We were sitting with an investigator, an Albanian, who's been having problems. The whole time during one of the sessions we were sweating, because all of the talks were blatantly directed STRAIGHT AT HIM. And they were not gentle either! All the people who knew him were praying that he wouldn't take offence. When we got out, I timidly asked how he liked it. He turned round, looked me in the eye with a frown on his face, and said, "I liked it. I've found the strong words I've been looking for! Why can't church be more like this?" I instantly sent a prayer of gratitude up to God for that! I love the words of the Prophets! Even when I listened in Italian, I felt the Spirit so strong! They always know what I need to know and learn. I'll be studying their words for days on end once I get hold of the Conference issue of the Ensign, I'll learn Spanish if I have to!

I love you all, Brothers and Sisters!
