Week 59: Departures and Arrivals

Oh hey!

Long week, but good week, I guess. 

The story of this week was pretty much us getting a new Mission Leaders. So that was pretty unique. We had one last call as a mission with President and Sister Alder on Tuesday as they left us with their testimony to continue to be diligently faithful. Our new Mission Leaders arrived Wednesday evening, and it was surreal as we made a new mission chat and watched President and Sister Alder leave the following morning. 

Anyways, with new mission leaders, this week has kind of been all over the place. We had an MLC call on Thursday afternoon to just help the McGinns get acquainted with the mission, and they lovingly told us how much they've been praying for us over the last 6 months, and how the Lord loves us. We also had a mini zone conference with them on Saturday evening in which we got to know them a little better. They're hilarious, and I'm excited to serve with them for the next 11 months or so.

Anyways, other than that, this week has been unique. (In other words) this week has been the same as always, with knocking a billion doors, friends committing to church (and not coming), and people declaring they're a witch and what not. 

But yeah, lots of pictures this week. Don't really know what else to say other than it was a long one. But yeah... enjoy the pics ig

With Love,

Week 104: Departing Testimony

Image
  Wow. First of all! Happy Mother's Day! So grateful for my Mom, and for all the other mothers of the world. It was a good day yesterday to get to call my Mom and as some say, "chop it up." Other than yesterday, this week was a bit of a grinder again, but that's ok. We had my last Zone Conference on Wednesday which was really wholesome and caused a lot of reflection for me. We trained and talked a lot about Chapter 8 of Preach My Gospel. I was also able to bear my departing testimony which was such a surreal experience. I bore testimony of how Jesus Christ has sustained me over the last 2 years, through the highs and lows. Of how the Book of Mormon and the words of living prophets are the key to spiritual survival. I was the only one in the group going home, so it was kind of weird to be the only one there, but it was a good time.  The rest of the week has been a LOT of finding, and it's been a little tough, but we've been making the most of it. We've foun...

Week 53: Into Year Two We Go

Image
  Ohhh my goodness. Thank GOODness it's P-day. Literally haven't had a p-day in 3 weeks.   2 weeks ago was moving day in Corbin, Last week we had a shortened p-day (see below) and finally we have today! Hallelujah! I'm about to take an all day p-day rather than cutting it off at 6. Lol, I'm kidding. I'm not that apostate. Anyways, this was a good week! Definitely felt it towards the end, but good nonetheless! We put two friends on date for baptism 🎊🥳🎊!!! Tuesday, we had a call with a new friend, and taught her the Gospel of Jesus Christ. She expressed a lot of desire to be baptized and we talked about how as missionaries, you know, that's what we do. We taught her particularly about the gift of the Holy Ghost. She readily accepted to be baptized on July 1st! Later in the week we taught her the Restoration, and her response to the First Vision was so powerful. She simply said, "Wow!" and you could tell she knew it was true! We'll continue to work...

Week 98: Picturesque Thai

Hey hey hey party peeps! How's it going? Good week in the KLM. Indiana is a vibe, and I got to see a lot of a lot of Southern Indiana this week as we went on exchanges with the Tell City Elders. I went there with Elder Meilstrup, which was a fun little reunion from back when I was his district leader in Winchester. We got some fun work done there and even crossed over into the Kentucky half of their area and found a few potentials. We exchanged back that night over in New Albany as we had Zone Conference the next day, so we just had all of us stay the night in New Albany. Zone conference was good. It wasn't anything too crazy. It started to hit me that I'm the next group for giving departing testimonies, so that's super weird. We emphasized Preach My Gospel a lot as well as our purpose as missionaries and it sounded like the zone really enjoyed it. The rest of the week was good. We exchanged with the Clarksville Bike Elders, and I stayed in New Albany with Elder Crane f...
