Week 72: Thinking Celestial

 Well y'all, it's officially Spooky szn!

What a week though here in the KLM. Sheesh, so much happened.

We went on exchanges with the APs Tuesday and Elder Kopinsky and I had an awesome time here in Shelbyville! We talked a lot about a bunch of different things like school, the gospel, life, etc. Definitely an impactful exchange, fr fr.

Wednesday we got to go to the Temple!!! Again! I got pretty lucky since it had been a bit since Elder Murray had been, so I got to tag along with him since I apparently can't be alone without a companion. It was wonderful to be in the House of the Lord again. I was grateful to be able to be in a session with several other missionaries that I know as well which was cool going through with them. 

I don't even know what we did Thursday. Actually never mind, I made an MTC social media coordinator cry because of a shoutout I gave her. So I guess that was something. It was good crying. Not bad crying. I promise.

Oh, I forgot. The Frankfort Elders and us played Tennis last Monday. That was a vibe.

But! General Conference! It was once again amazing to be able to go out and invite people to listen to messages and music centered on Jesus Christ. I absolutely love General Conference and appreciated everything I learned this past weekend. There were so many good talks, but President Nelson's was probably my favorite. Or maybe Elder Renlund. Or Elder Bednar. They were all good lol. Send me your favorites!

We had an awesome lesson in between Sunday lessons with Angela, and she absolutely loved General Conference. She also believes the Book of Mormon is true! So she's so awesome!!

Anyways, hope you all are doing great and are getting ready for sweater weather!

With Love,

Week 101: Thunder Over Louisville

Image
What a Week! We're ending with a bang over here in the KLM, that's for sure! This past week was pretty fun. We did a lot of hard work out in the heat, but it was worth it as we found a lot of cool new potentials. It's been reminding me of my Winchester and Shelbyville days with the sunny heat we've been getting. It seriously has been gorgeous weather. We found a lot of cool new people this week, and we're excited to meet again with them this coming week. We went on exchanges with the Bike Elders this week. I stayed here in New Albany with my son(!) Elder Lichlyter which was a super fun reunion exchange. It was kind of crazy since we've hardly served around each other since our time in Corbin, and it was so good to be together again. We started our exchange by selling my bike to some guy named Ethan in a Bass Pro Shops parking lot. So that was a vibe. The only problem is that he paid in cash and the nearest Bank of America ATM is in Lexington. So rip. But it'...

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 49: Reflections

Image
Well, week 49 in the books. Pretty good week, not going to lie. Lol, I feel like every week is the polar opposite of the previous week. Anyways, this week we enjoyed lots of door knocking, lots of member visits, and lots of attempted member participating lessons. Oh my goodness, the devil tried SO much to stop MPLs from happening this week! Like we literally had our friend and our member on over video chat for like 2 minutes, and then our friend's power went out and she couldn't call. Like oh my goodness! But it's ok. We also had a lady we were teaching couldn't meet because of certain things ("[Missionary standards] require that I answer No!" - Bob's Boss, from "The Incredibles"). Basically we bribed her and she then was happy to meet. We'll leave it at that. Ngl, that's kind of it for this week. The work just keeps on going, I guess. We've had a lot of great things this week, and I'm excited for what happens over the next few we...
