Cine sunt Mormonii?


Hey Everyone!
This was a super fun week.  We had Zone Conference Wednesday and Thursday and we had a fireside last night.  That, coupled with basketball for exercise in the mornings lately, crepes, etc.  equals a good week!
First of all, Zone Conference was super good.  The AP's gave a really good presentation about studies and related it to office hours at a university (where you can go talk to your professor in his/her office) and said that studies is like your office hour every day with the professor of the universe.  It was a cool analogy and makes a very routine missionary thing seem a lot cooler haha.  Also at Zone Conference I saw Elder L... again!  He's serving in Bucharest now so we were at the same conference.  He gave his exit testimony because it was his last zone conference he'll be at before going home.  It was sad that it was his last and I'll miss him when he's gone but it was super cool to see him.
Last night (Sunday night) we had a fireside called "Cine sunt Mormonii?".  It was super good.  We had 45 people there and most of them were non-members.  Fratele Negrici, a former Orthodox Priest who's our current elders' quorum president spoke, along with President Bâldea, a former Pentecostal church leader and our current branch president, and President Hill, the mission president who's also a convert.  It was super good and a lot of members brought their friends which made it even better.  We had lots of people there and it was a huge success.
Also this week we made crepes 3 times haha.  They were super good every time.
I hope all of you have a great week and I love you all and I'll talk to you next week!
Love, Elder Michael Abbott
Baschet e sportul meu preferat. Îmi place modul în care driblă sus și jos pe teren... dar sincer nu îmi place faptul că nu există vreun cuvânt special pentru un teren de baschet.  Cântecul ar fi mai bun în Românește dacă ar exista cuvântul ăla.

 Elder Abbott's zone in front of the chapel in Bucharest.  They had a Hogwart's theme.  His district was Hufflepuff, hence the purple ties. Ploiesti was Slytherin, Brasov was Gryffindor,  and Constanta was Ravenclaw.
