#40 Mission Conference

Wednesday, April 23, 2014

Hello Everyone. 
This last week has been great.  We had a mission conference with Elder Nielson.  He is the Area president for the Philippines and the coolest part is he is from Twin Falls, Idaho.  I had something sweet happen this week.  For the conference I got to go to the boat port with the zone leader's and pick up Elder Nielson and his wife.  It was cool because President Tanner got off first and gave me a hug and then Elder Nielson followed him and shook my hand first and we talked a little bit.  Then near the end of the conference I got to have an interview with him.  We talked and I found out he is from Burley Idaho and he was Bro. Fife's stake president.  It was really cool.  We had a conference for the whole day with him.  He and his wife talked to us and their main subject was about grace.  They explained how it enables us and helps us.  I feel like almost everyday this week I have used grace.  I am not perfect but I have been called to be an example and preach the gospel.  I love the Philippines as always and the people here are awesome.  
Love,
Elder Roskelley


For Easter everyone went to church on Friday because they celebrate the death of Christ, it was sad to see. For our Easter dinner we had a stew that we made with some dehydrated veggies that Elder Johnson’s parents sent him, he is from Northern Montana.
