Thomas Update

So I am thinking it's time for another Elder Macmillan update! My Thomas is doing great out on his mission!! He is now in Burley, ID and his new companion is Elder Brace and they've been getting along real well. Elder Brace goes home next month, so Tom says he's grateful to be with someone so experienced so he can learn so much from him.

He's loving his new area! He says the members there are very passionate about missionary work and help the missionaries a lot with finding people to teach and keeping them involved in the church. They had a baptism last week, and they're teaching a woman named Chris who is excited and ready for baptism as well!

This upcoming weekend is General Conference, so, needless to say, him and I are very excited. As is every active member in the church, I'm assuming! He is going to be watching it with Chris and the family fellowshipping her, so that will definitely be a fun, uplifiting, and strengthening experience for him! Plus, I am a little extra excited about this General Conference because when this weekend passes, it means only one more conference till he comes home to me!

So, Thomas is still doing great on his mission! He's loving the work, loving the Lord, loving the people! It's been a great experience for him and I know will continue to be the next 10 months!
