Week 75: scavenger hunt

 Sheesh. It's been a week.


Ok, so like Monday through Thursday was mid at best. Our member meal with Bishop on Tuesday night carried fr.

The Weekend was grand though.

Friday:
Exchanges in Frankfort. I went there again with a first transfer trainee, Elder Granados. He's 26, and has an awesome testimony. Holy cow they have so many yellow dots (interested people), it was amazing. We literally set up like 5 lessons, taught a couple lessons on the spot, and called like 20 people with most answering. It was a nice change of pace from door knocking (Tuesday to Thursday rip). We also taught English Class which was actually pretty cool (they're Spanish/English Elders). Teaching English is a lot different from learning Spanish. It was eye opening.

Saturday:
Ok this day popped off. It was actually epic. We did a Zone Scavenger hunt. I'll attach a screenshot of our end of day stuff, but it was epic. There's only one more week of our transfer long spooky challenge, and this week did not disappoint! Our district absolutely killed it! It was actually so fun to go around Shelbyville doing real missionary work by making some quirky things happen. Def did not think I would be cutting down a banana tree at the beginning of the day, but cut it we did!


Sunday:
Bold talks in Sacrament meeting about the Covenant path with Tony, Janet, and Jazzy in attendance. Things got heated in Elders Quorum over Elder Rasband's conference talk. Tears were shed during our lesson with Angela, as she and a member from the Ward bonded over things they've both gone through.

Also learned about family history work this week for our member message on Monday. She pretty much decided to share a message with us, instead of us to them. It was actually kind of cool and we started doing some family history this week.


Anyways, epic week indeed. Pics included.

Much Love,

Cool tree

Piano that some sus guy was trying to give us. He said he would come back after he got his phone. He didn't come back. We go upstairs and hear him talking to his buddy about how some "mormons" are here looking for teddy and that he doesn't know what to do with them. Low key sounded like he was on the run from the FBI

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...
