Yeah, I started my mission about 1 year into Preach My Gospel. My mission

president encouraged us to spend no more than 20-30 min in one lesson. That never happened with the "regulars", but it was pretty typical to meet some random person in a village somewhere and teach a 15 min lesson on the BoM or the Plan of Salvation or whatnot on the spot. So 7 lessons in a day was by no means Herculean. I can imagine that in the days of discussions that would be much harder to do.

I think it was Jarom Jordan on twitter that has posted 8-10 since he's been out.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him lose 50 lbs. walking around in the AZ heat

I had a wonderful mission. My OP wasn't meant to come off as complaining.

All I know is that when I lived in AZ, our ward fed the missionaries every day

4/14/15 4:17pm

We got fed lunch everyday by members, but because we didn't have cars or bikes

We need a team fireside in AZ. Subject = lean protein, low carbs for the elders
