What

Hello friends and family

Yesterday I had my last zone Conference. I cried a lot near the end when they asked the departing missionaries to bare their testimony. It was pretty cool. Big boys do cry.

My weekly emails have been a bit skimpy lately, mostly because every day we do the same thing, basically. New experiences do happen, but what more can be said about tweakers in Needles?

This weekend we are having a wedding-baptism. A member of the church is marrying this guy we taught and they are getting hitched on Saturday. The guy getting Baptized asked me to Baptize him, so this will be a good last hurrah, seeing as the next baptisms won't occur while I am here. Needles has definitely topped being my favorite area I have served in. I love all of my areas, but Needles is definitely the most unique one and since it is my last area, it is special.

Yesterday we had zone Conference at the mission office, which is in Las Vegas. My current companion is from Shelly Idaho and he has never driven in a city before (sorry to say but Idaho Falls and Rexburg don't count for city driving once you've been in an actual city). He was very nervous and I was teaching him how to drive in the city. He did great and we didn't die, so that was nice. It was about a 2 to 3 hour drive from Needles and so we didn't get back until last night at around 8. We hit the streets for about an hour and we talked to our friend Benny, a semi-homeless guy who loves the church a lot.

Check it out now: today we are going to Parker to party with our zone leaders. And by party, I mean exchanges with them. Not Parker Idaho, Parker Arizona. Don't get your hopes up.

Have fun wherever you are at. I will probably send at least one more weekly email before I get shipped home.

Keep the faith

-Elder Moore
