Zone Leader



Welp...

I have some crazy news this week that you all probably won't
understand.  Well of course by the title you know by now that I am a
Zone Leader. That's right, I am now accountable for twenty
missionaries comprising the Pinetop Stake. Hence, the name Pinetop
Zone. The interesting part is that my son(trainee) is TRAINING! I have
only half trained my son and he is already the District Leader and
Trainer. I'm going to be a Grandpa! (The trainer of a trainer) Get it,
because my son(trainee) is going to have a son(trainee)...

Anyway! This week was hard because there was this big carnival all
week so, nobody was home. It is a big fair they have down here every
year and it reminded me of Strawberry days in Pleasant Grove. The
Parade was actually pretty neat too. We went to the parade and talked
with tons of people and it was super hot but, I survived. Then, all
that week we stopped in at the carnival for a couple hours. It was all
good. It was a bit annoying to take pictures with every person their
but, we managed to get some people interested in us coming by.

It has it's goods and bads. We talked to a lot of new people but, at
the same time we couldn't find the people who are really interested.

So yeah, sorry this is out of order but, we had transfers and I got
transferred to Apache North area. Which I stay in the same town just
in the other area. My new companion, Elder Whitehouse, and I are Zone
Leaders. Which means I am happy because I get to meet with the Mission
President every month to gain training and wisdom on how we can help
the mission serve. Service is great, you all should sacrifice some
time to serve your neighbors. Ask what they need help with and if they
claim they don't need your help just make them cookies.

I love you all! Stay safe and enjoy the things you have and the people
you are with.

Moroni 7:45-47
45 And charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is
not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh
no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth,
beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth
all things.

46 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, if ye have not charity, ye are
nothing, for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity,
which is the greatest of all, for all things must fail--

47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever;
and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well
with him.


Elder Hamson
