'Till We Meet Again 6-28-2021

 


Tuesday nothing too crazy happened. We went to a young men's activity and played chair soccer which a lot of fun.

 Thursday we had District Council which was good. We talked about repentance and how we can apply it better to us and teach it to people. 

 Friday most of the day we spent at a mission wide conference since it is the last one before our Mission President goes home and we get a new one. The whole thing was super awesome as President Call went through and talked about some of highlights of some of their favorite trainings they have given. We ended up talking a lot about Christ's Atonement and change. I will miss President and Sister Call. They were excellent examples of diligence through pain and power in teaching and in the priesthood to me. They also showed incredible love towards each other (which I hope to emulate to my future wife) and towards us. President Call taught me so much about how the Priesthood works and how God runs His kingdom here on earth. Our closing hymn for the meeting was "God be with you 'till we meet again" and I was crying so hard I feel bad for the people around me who heard me sing. 

 Nothing else from Saturday or Sunday too exciting.

 Miracle of the Week: I can't remember which day it was but we were on a walk and were wandering around and were pretty close to going back. While walking Elder S suggested we go another direction and because we did we were able to run into some people who we have been trying to set up a time to meet with for a couple months and things kept coming up. we were able to talk to them and set up a lesson for this week! I was so happy Elder S listened to the Holy Ghost who told him to suggest going that way.

 Quote of the Week: "I like your haircut! You actually look like a missionary now!"

 Pictures (hopefully in order):

1-3. We found some green in Utah!

I'll be finishing up my mission tomorrow and will be flying home Tuesday. Things came together and J was able to baptized on Sunday. We were so excited and she was super ready to make that covenant. Have a great week and thanks for your prayers! Here are some pictures from the last couple weeks I know that Jesus is the Christ and He lives today. You can pray and learn that for yourself! Try it!

Just another email about conference 4/6/2020

Fun story: I just got a call and I have been called to be a District Leader (in charge of a small group of missionaries) and they added another stake to our area as well. Shout out to Elder K for being a district leader as well!! This week was pretty interesting. The beginning we we didn't have much to do and it was kinda miserable. However, the second half of the week we were like screw it, we are going to work hard because we have nothing else to do. As that happened, we saw that we were both much more happier and a lot less depressed. I we had more lessons with people as well as the chance to talk to some of my friends (y'all) about the church as well which awesome to see them and talk about what brings me happiness. General Conference was Saturday and Sunday and it was fantastic. Last General Conference we were told that this one was going to be not only memorable but unforgettable and boy did they pull out all the stops. Went our church building and watched ...

Monday night they had a BBQ across the street and a the police came and did a presentation and gave tours of some of their vehicles. They also would cuff you if you wanted.   Tuesday we crashed a youth activity and the young women were doing a salon so we joined in an get masks and had my toenails painted.    Wednesday we rearranged our bedroom a little to give more space for our beds which ended up working out well. In the evening we had an ice cream social with one of the wards we cover and we got to chat with the and met a lot of people. They also had a ton of left over ice cream so we now have a stash of ice cream at the church whenever we want it.   Thursday we went to this homemade ice cream place in downtown bountiful which as really good ice cream. In the evening we were on a walk to visit people and it started thunder storming which I enjoyed since we haven't had any rain in a couple months and I love thunderstorms.   Friday we had District Coun...
