A little shorter of a week this week, but it was a fun one!!
Thursday: Preperation day, because of the transfers. We played some firsbee golf at a park and I had a lot of fun! Then we said goodbye to everyone in the district. Both my companions packed for most of the day. Then we had a great member visit with Brother Akina, and we talked about uplifting and serving others!! And finished off the night with a great phone call visit with our friend Juan!!
Friday: Transfer day was crazy. We got to the Newbury Park building and got to see a lot of familiar faces! It was fun to be around so many missionaries! Then I said goodbye to my 2 companions. Then while we were waiting for the other missionaries coming down we played cornhole, basketabll and pool. Me and Elder Jackson killed it in cornhole and are undefeated together(dating back to July 2022). Then I got back to my area with E. Cosentino and we had a great lesson with Brighton and Brizieda! Then we got to help Elder Merrill and his trainee Elder Richardson move in to our apartment!
Saturday: There was a stake wide service clearing a field of weeds that we were able to help with! However an hour into helping me and Elder Cosentino got bit/stung by a couple of hornets, so we came home early to take care of those stings. But then we were able to get back to work after lunch! We went and had a lesson with our friend Grant, that went pretty good!
Sunday: Our sacrement meeting was very focused on sharing the light that we all have! We had a missionary farewell, and they are going to be a great missionary! We had an awesome dinner with the Phillips who are fantastic and made us some really good tacos! We were able to get in contact with Mo and Tim and figured out how we can best help them!
Monday: District Council was really good! We talked about why the spirit is so important to have in our lives, as well as the best ways to receive and keep the spirit in our missionary work! We had a lot of planning and studying that we got done.
Tuesday: Yesterday was a big day of service. We helped our friend Joe out and we also helped the community with help at Foodshare. Sister Rollo from our ward made us a good dinner, and we had a lesson fall through...
I love this scripture:
Ether 6:9 "And they did sing praises unto the Lord; yea, the brother of Jared did sing praises unto the Lord, and he did thank and praise the Lord all the day long; and when the night came, they did not cease to praise the Lord."
The Jaradites are making their way across the sea while winds and waves are beating down upon them. I liken those waves to our trials that are leading us to where we need to go. Just as the wind and waves were guding the Jaradites to the promised land. I hope you all are doing great and praise the Lord for all He has given you, even when life may not be going great!
There's my crazy week, I hope you all have a great one and enjoy General Conference!!!!
