THE BEST PREPARATION DAY EVER!

Hey everyone,


So, today we just got back from the most epic prepararion day that I have been apart of on my mission.

About a month ago, Elder Argyle and I were speaking to the other zone leaders (Elder Monson & Elder Howe), about doing a combined zone outing, wherein we gather together much like we would for zone conference, we have a multi-zone meeting where we instruct for a little bit, and then we have an activity.

Well, a lot of ideas were thrown out onto the table, but the one idea that looked the most appealing was to go see a show in Branson!

So, we conversed more and more and we saw that there was a show in Branson that is performed by members called "The Hughes Brothers" and they would let missionaries come to their show for free.

This was all very exciting, but the one catch was that we now had to get it approved by the mission president. So, we organize everything we were going to present so that he understood everything that would go on with the multi-zone activity, and then....

THE CALL WAS MADE

President ended up approving of the activity(YAY!!!), which made us extremely happy (that is one of the biggest understatements of the year), and now we had to coordinate rides for 38 missionaries to get to Branson for this little shin-dig!

Well, I don't want to bore you with all the craziness that went along with coordinating rides, but we finally got everyone situated to get to the activity......

WHICH TOOK PLACE TODAY!!!! :)

We gathered together an hour before the show and us and the other zone leaders instructed on how all our efforts as missionaries are not wasted. It was, in my opinion, what all the missionaries needed to hear that day.

Then, we went to the show...AND IT WAS AMAZING!

Then, afterwards, 12 of us missionaries went to Lambert's Cafe "The Home of the Throwed Roll"

That was an absolute blast, and we had so much fun eating there. The food was good, but the experience of going to one of the best restaurants in the country was even better...especially when you are with a lot of missionaries whom you love and care for.

Anyways, this day has been such a good stress release for all of us.

I love all of you, and I hope you all have a great, stress-free week.
