Monday we got together as a district and did volleyball at a
park and that was fun.
Tuesday was
interviews with president. They were in
person this time! That's never happened before during my mission, so it was
something new to me.
Wednesday we had
district council and then we had a lesson with Reba and Shae. We taught them about the Book of Mormon and
that they can feel nearer to God by abiding by its precepts than by any other
book. Afterwards Reba texted us and said
thank you for the lesson, and that the lesson made her feel better than she had
in a long time. It was really awesome, and we hope to help her see the impact
that the gospel can have in her life.
On Thursday we had a full mission conference. You've gotta
understand that President Auna almost never does things like that. Usually the
biggest mission conference we'd have was a half mission conference twice a
year, and the biggest mission conference I'd ever been to in my mission wasnt
even a Zone Conference but a Half Zone conference due to covid restrictions. So
this full mission conference was a huge deal! I got to see all the people I'd
met, minus those who had gone back to their original assignments or gone home,
and it was way cool! I didnt realize how many people I hadn't met. We talked
about growing our faith and that was awesome. Afterwards we went to the tulip festival. The flowers were so pretty.
On Friday we had a
lesson with a family in the ward that lasted like 3 hours, and the whole time
they didn't shove politics down our throats! You have to understand, we've had
several member lessons where they only. talk. politics. to. us. So the fact
that we had a lesson that lasted THREE HOURS and there was no mention of
politics was incredible! And so relieving!!
Oh and on Sunday the elders decided to prank us and
harmlessly vandalize our car before they were at church so I'll include
pictures!
Okay love you all!!!
