What's up yall!! Hope all of you guys have had a great
week!! This week went by super fast and was very tiring. We had interviews with
the mission president this week. We also have had a lot of lessons
recently which is good but very tiring. Finding people here is really hard and
its even harder to find people that actually want to commit to a second
lesson.
Monday was so much fun because I played volleyball for
like 5 hours and then we didn't have to go do any missionary work that night
because we had a meeting with our branch president about how we can get all our
inactives back to church. This area has the most members in it in the whole
stake but is still a branch because none of those members are active.
They made some fire food and then we had our meeting which took 4 hours but it
got us out of walking around in the cold for a few hours so it was nice. I also
decided to try and fade up one of the missionaries in my zone and it didn't go
well. I realized I don't have the skills that Elder cook has and he had to go
get it fixed by another missionary.
Also this week we got grounded two separate times because
the weather dropped below -10 again so they decided it was too cold to go
outside. so we spent 4 hours doing facebook work and calling people. Wednesday
we got denied a lot but it was ok because one of our friends who works at the
bucky's gas station that we go to gives us free drinks and we have slowly
gotten to know her and have just talked about missionary work with her but
wednesday we were able to talk to her about the church and our beliefs and she
even gave us her number so we could send her the zoom link to church so that
was lit.
Friday we had this really cool lesson with our friend quame.
Quame is a seventh day adventist but he told us that he asked for a sign and he
believes that we were that sign. We taught him the coolest restoration of my
mission and he is just so cool.
Saturday was such a busy day. We had 12 lessons and it was
so tiring but in the words of elder Hansen "nothing beats missionary work
on 4 hours of sleep and a peachy keen monster". It was definitely worth it
because almost all those people told us they would love to learn more.
That was basically my week and im just loving missionary
work. Its so cool to see people change for the better and come closer to jesus
christ. I gave a talk on sunday about how we can follow christ through simple
ways. I spent all week on it and apparently when you don't write your talks the
night before they end up doing pretty well haha. Hope all of you stay safe this
week!!!
