(Elder Slade)
To the best friends and family a person could ask for,
Let me tell you. This week we did not eat the healthiest. So
many members gave us junk food and deserts. We got two members who gave us
cinnamon rolls, one member gave us a box of Krispy Kreme (that was my favorite)
and a ton of cookies! One of the days my companions ate so much, I was worried
they would go into a sugar come. I'll tell you though, they crashed hard.
This week our mission started an Instagram page, called
findingfaithinchrist. They havent given us Instagram yet, but they started a
completion to see who could get the most followers for the page. I think we are
in the lead with over 200 followers. Elder Snow and Elder Nabrotzky are so
motivated to win it. I have never seen anyone else more competitive. They are
devoting so much time to this. The winning companionship gets dinner at the
mission home, and the winning zone gets a pizza party. The completion ends
tonight at 6. I'll let you know next week if we won.
I loved General Conference this weekend! It was great to
hear from our leaders. I loves what the prophet said about Letting God Prevail
in our lives. It implies a humble submissiveness and a trust in God. I want
that for my life, and in the lives of those I teach, because that's when they
will be the happiest they can be.
I love you all! Thanks for all of you who wishes me happy
birthday! I had a great birthday! Went to mod pizza, someone made me a cake,
and some kid gave me 2 bucks! Also Potato harvest has been happening the past
week or so, and I'm actually pretty sad I'm not in the country to help. I think
it would be pretty fun! Perhaps next year!
