4.16.12

Dear Peeps,
So this week has been one of the most stressful of my mission I think. It was stake conference this weekend and we had to go to York for church.  This has happened before and I have never worried too much about it in the past, but now I am senior comp and so it was more my responsibility.  So as of Friday night everything seemed
sorted. We had 11 (Joan, Ann, Ann, Rose, Joanne+Stewart+James, Becky+troy+Iesha, and Ian) people to arrange lifts for and we knew pretty much who was going where...... Then Saturday happened.  I think only the jo-stew-james situation stayed the same - other than that we played a big game of musical cars. But it was good and stake conference was really powerful.  One of my favorite little parts was during our stake presidents talk (about being charitable) he read
a poem (which I recommend to everyone who reads this, I don't know how what it is called but if you google airport cookie thief poem you might just find it) and near the end (and the humorous bit) this guy just busts out laughing!  I look around and I notice it is Stewart!  Hmmm…... well this story isn't quite so funny without knowing Stewart.
But it was funny to me and stake conference was more packed than ours generally are so lots of people heard it.  Anyway, missionary work is epic. Love it. Love you all.
TTFN,
Elder Tombs
