First
thing is first, a member of the ward council set up a time to meet with
a less active. When we arrived we also learned that the lady has a non
member grandson. Someone pointed out the temple and the grandson, Drew,
asked about it. We taught him a bit about baptisms for the dead and he
said that it made sense and got really excited about it. We then proceed
to teach about the Book of Mormon and he has all ready READ some of it!
I am so
stoked that the Lord blessed us with someone to teach on this mountain.
He will be out of town this week but thank goodness for Facebook.
Another
note, we had the best district meeting that I have ever been apart of.
All we did is our opening stuff, our "yays" for the week. I will have
to
thank my mom for that idea, she made us do it every. single. day. But
it's something that has stuck with me and now a habit. Then we all
shared the scripture from
the Book of Mormon that has changed our life. Mine is 2 Nephi 28:32. I
love that no matter how many times I mess up in life, I still have
the Lords hand extended to me. We all almost came to tears sharing our
scriptures and it was just so powerful for the rest of the meeting. I
haven't felt this unified with my district since the MTC. When the stuff
happens before the second coming I am going to call all these guys up
because we have each other's backs. We finished the meeting with hot
dogs.
We did an exchange with McMinnville
and had such a blast! Oh, another highlight is we cleaned and painted
this whole ceiling which took us like 8 hours to do over the course of
the week. I am happy that the Eagles won and happy that this is the last
Super Bowl that I will have to miss. Bring on March Madness!
I love ya'll and hope ya'll have a blessed week!
