Week 67: Can You Beat the Heat?

y'all. I don't know what to write in these anymore. The weeks are flying by, and I don't know what happened this past week.

anyways. s/o to Joseph who got home from Bolivia on Thursday!! Literally cannot believe it's been 2 years since I went to his setting apart in Vegas 🤯

This week was hot!!!! It was honestly not as bad as I thought it would be, but we definitely felt the heat as we went out and did the work. But holy cow, like no one wanted to talk. Everyone was so nice in offering us water and telling us things like "y'all need to get out of this heat," but little did they know that they were the only ones preventing us from getting out of said heat. Just talk to the missionaries lol ;)

LOL, it wasn't that bad. but I just internally laughed a bit.

This week I had a call with Salt Lake City to get a website approved on my phone. It was a trip. But it was fun. I did it with our tech specialist on exchanges, and he started asking about getting Android Auto on our phones (little did I know, but apparently they're trying to test that in our mission) 👀, to which one of the salt lake people were unimpressed and unapproving and the other seemed to be trying to hold back laughter in approval. a trip indeed.

Soccer night in La Grange. 'twas a flop. But that's all good. We had a friend who said he was going to come, and then didn't show.

But other than that, this week consisted of a lot of planning some trainings for district councils, training at said councils, and planning for zone conference this coming Wednesday. All that plus the usual proselyting. it was a good week.

'till next!

I'm allergic to cats. Kentucky has a lot of cats.
Unrelated (and no pic) but we almost hit a deer driving to this place

Train vibes

LOL. Elder Smith bought a new bike tube. We didn't have a bike pump that fit his nozzle or whatevs, so we went to get some free Lowe's air. It absolutely blew up and sounded like a gunshot as we filled it with too much air. We walked next door to walmart and bought the same bike tube (again) not an hour after purchasing the first one.

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...
