Well it blows my mind that I have hit 11 months!! Time is taking off too fast! But it’s also pretty exciting! I have a lot to accomplish before I come home!
This week was a bad one. . . . I had to deal with a lot of stuff with other missionaries that were not fun--some of the stressful things about being a Zone Leader. But there were some highlights to the week!
So we had a missionary go home from our zone. We had to drive him to Charleston on Monday and stay the night down there for a training the next morning. So now I have two companions for the rest of the transfer! Elder Labrum is staying with us in our area, so now we cover like three counties and over 100 miles--it is crazy! But it is so much fun as well! It keeps things lively with two companions, I enjoy it!
And speaking of my companions. . . They both got sick this week, so we couldn't get out and work for a few days! It was rough. I was so bored I actually deep cleaned our apartment. Talk about a fun week, right? We did manage to get a few lessons in on the weekend though!
We went to see a less active member named Mary. She is a convert of like nine years. We ended up teaching her 14 year old daughter which was really cool! It was a great lesson. Mary needed a blessing so we taught the whole restoration and talked about the priesthood. Beth is so funny, we enjoyed the lesson and she wants to read the whole Book of Mormon. She said it will only take her a few days haha. So that is exciting, we are going to focus on getting them to church this week. Keep them in your prayers please!
We had a good lesson with Sister Proffit on the power of the atonement and the fall of Adam and Eve. That is my favorite subject to teach on! I love the symbolism of the fall! It was a good lesson. I can tell she really appreciated our visits, so it is a good time.
Lately I have really been feeling so much more charity for those I serve! I know God loves his children so much and wants them all to enjoy the blessings of the restored gospel and most importantly enjoying the blessings of making and keeping sacred covenants. I love being a missionary so much. To bring people to that kind of happiness is such a privilege that I will always be grateful for!
I love you all and am so thankful for all the prayers and the support!
Keep the Faith!!
