Week 65: pakistan and whatnot

 Heyoooo!!!

Welcome back friends!!! It's been a party in Shelbyville this past week!
Day by day Synopsis. Go!

Tuesday:
Called our friend over in Pakistan via facebook messenger. She didn't speak English. It was a vibe. So we spoke via google translate for like half an hour, and she said wants a Book of Mormon, so that she can quote "spread it to her entire village" close quote. We'll see how that goes. But hey, pretty cool.
We also had a lesson with Jazzy and her mom Janet in the waiting room of the Temple on Tuesday while the youth were inside. So that was kind of cool.

Wednesday: 
Literally didn't proselyte at all. rip
- MLC from 10am to 4pm. 
- Then we had to weekly plan since we were exchanging the next day.
- Then Dinner
- Then a Stake Missionary Coordination call with President Bednar and the like for an hour
- Then our District Leader Call. 

Vibe 

Thursday: 
Interviews! Always a treat. I renewed my Temple recommend with President McGinn and it's crazy to think that it's been two years since I got my recommend for the first time. 

We were also supposed to exchange with the APs today, but they had to push it back a day last minute. Other than that, probably some door knocking and whatnot


Friday:
We had Crest Class (a zone comp study) that we completely forgot about until 30 seconds after it started.
Exchanges with the APs. I went up to Crestwood again with Elder Garner. I drove the Toyota Sienna since Elder Garner is going home this transfer. So that was fun. I also made use of them having access to the Church's database and looked up some Pakistan stuff lol.

Saturday:
Zone Leadership Council. Probably one of my favorite meetings as missionaries. Just enjoyable to join with the district leaders and STLs and discuss the work.

Also a dual Ward Fiesta!! It was soo fun, and there were so many non-members there. It was awesome amd there was AMAZING food!

Sunday:
Three of the people we met at the party yesterday came to Church!!! They are good friends with a member, and it was awesome to see them there!

Anyways, this is too long. 
s/o to grace for getting some swiftie tickets. Runnin' it up in Nola October 2024 baby. lol

Have a great week!!!!

Lots of Love,

Elder Creer

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...
