Monday: We had a really simple district activity, we just played 4 on the couch as well as mafia. Super fun, because we have a way fun district!!! That night we were able to stop by people that hadn't been contacted in a while which was pretty successful!!!
Tuesday: District Council was awesome!! We talked a lot about what we should be studying and how that can help us with our teaching. We also talked about receiving personal revelation! It's so awesome that God loves us enough to want to talk to us individually and help us make choices so He allows us to receive personal revelation!! Then we had service which was fun, and then we tried some store contacting and it is not the best...
Wednesday: I was with Elder George for the day, he is in the Templeton ward and we had a blast!! We tracted in the morning and then went on an adventure way out east, contacted a lot of the people that were out there!!
Thursday: We had a mission wide zoom about preperation days and what they should look like. I learned I really need to have better personal studies on Mondays, and prioritize things and do them in the morning or I forget lol. We got to help feed people at E.C.H.O. We met a lot of cool people while street contacting, but not a lot were interested in a message.
Friday: Busy day! We were able to go see someone that we are teaching perform at their school, then they took us out to lunch afterwards! Then from there we went out and did some service, then came back into town to do a little more service, then barely made it to a visit with the Stricklers! Then after visiting them we did some phone calls and talked with Tim! Tim has had some very spiritual experiences happen to him in his life and is ready to learn about the restored gospel again!
Saturday: Exchange day with Atascadero! I went down to Atascadero with Elder Pickrell and had a blast! We did some service then went to the Tamale Festival. It was so crazy, they had 30 different types of Tamales. But we were too busy talking to people that we didn't get any Tamales... After the tamale festival we stopped by Sister Gouff who is the sweetest lady and we had a very spirit filled lesson!
Sunday: Had a couple friends come to church which was amazing, then we had 2 friends attend a member baptism and they loved it!! We had a lesson with the Peterson family and they are wild. But we squeezed in a lesson between all of the craziness. Then we had an amazing dinner with the Paige family, and had a really cool discussion about what a testimony is!!!
I am grateful for my testimony and the blessing that it is to me! I want to leave you with my favorite testimony from the scriptures. D&C 76 22-24, "And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives! For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father— That by him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created, and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God"
Love you all, have a great week!!
