Hey everyone!! This week was incredible!
We met a lady on facebook in Africa named Ritah and she
seems very interested in learning more about the gospel, so that's really
exciting! And the more we learn about Ritah the more I am impressed by her
faith! She is awesome!!
We had another lesson with Shae this week and we asked her
how she felt about what we taught about the Restoration last week and if she
felt like it was true when she prayed about it and she said she felt peaceful
and happy and like it was true! And that was incredible because I remember
feeling joy and peace when I read Joseph Smith's account on my own, so I shared
that with Shae. We taught her about baptism and the gift of the holy ghost and
asked her to pray to know that baptism is the right thing to do, so we'll
follow up Next week And tell you all how that went!! Please pray for Shae that
she'll know it's the right thing to do!
We also had the opportunity to teach the youth about this
Sunday and so sister Israelsen and I, our Ward Mission Leader who is 20 and
preparing to go on a mission, and a girl Hailey who just got back from her
mission last week all taught about missionary work. But before we started,
Bishop shared some insights with the youth about how Satan tries to lure us off
our high ground. And he kept using the term high ground a lot and I'm not sure
if he knew he was quoting the Star Wars prequel memes.
Also, this week Maas, the church protections program on
missionaries' phones decided to freak out and delete apps randomly on
everyone's phones. Well that meant I had to reinstall a few apps and now
Facebook won't work. So we called up to the APs who know more about the issues
to see if they knew any solutions. Well, I'm known to make a few dad jokes, and
so they were like "okay if these solutions we give you don't work in the
next few days, contact us. And we'll have dad jokes prepared." Sooooo I
think the APs have declared a Dad Joke War. So that's fun!
Okay love you all!!!
