Week 102: (hashtag)QuadLife

Interesting Week.

On Tuesday, I had my final regular scheduled interview with President McGinn. So that was kind of surreal. We talked about the final weeks of my mission and how I can carry that into the rest of my life. Being a missionary never stops. Some might even say #NewAlbanyNevaStops.

Wednesday we had MLC which was definitely one of the more interesting ones I've attended. We had a great discussion about the blessings of attending Sacrament meeting on the morning. The entire afternoon was a discussion on how we're going to start keeping each other accountable for key indicators for conversion. Particularly monthly baptism goals. So it'll be interesting. 

So in other news, the Bike Elders' apartment had a pipe collapse under their floor so they've been living with us since Wednesday. Their maintenance people have been quite the situation as they've dug an absolute trench all throughout their apartment. The quad life has been interesting. Thankfully we have 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, but it's a little tight. Low-key, we got some frat house vibes up in this crib. So that's been interesting and fun.

Saturday was our ZLC of that MLC mentioned earlier. We got some "Get It On a Bun at Booty's" for lunch afterwords, and dropped an absolute bag. #notworthit, but #NewAlbanyStaple (?)

We did eat some really good food this week though. Friday was perhaps some of the best Mexican food I've had on the mission. And it was in the home of a pilot for UPS, so it was such a vibe to talk about planes for an hour

We got a good flick of the Louisville Skyline up in the Knobs after said member meal. It was fire, except you def can't see the Louisville skyline in it LOL. It's there in spirit. Surely.

But yeah! This week will probably slay. We got some district councils to train at, and then a fire exchange. So it'll be good

But until then?

Peace!

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...
