Heyyy errybody! This week was full of ups and downs, but I'm so grateful for how much I learn and grow each day! Honestly I don't have a lot to update on, but somehow this email will still be long.
Things to know:
- Sister Pardo and I put two more of our friends on date! But they are sadly struggling with the Word of Wisdom, so we are continuing to work with them because they really want to be baptized.
- Our friend Brayden wasn't able to get baptized on September 18th like we planned, so we pushed it out to December and are trying to do all we can and keep trusting in God's plan :)
- Our friend Michelle I talked about last week came to church again, along with some of our other friends, and she came to a relief society potluck and now has lots of friends in the ward!
- One of the missionaries in our zone got emergency transferred to be a zone leader this last week so we said a quick goodbye :( Our zone is small now after two missionaries have left.
Stories of the week:
Not a ton of stories, but one of the nights this week we went to a member dinner and brought the Elders, and our member is a little interesting and made us sit on the floor haha so it was just super funny. One of the elders farted and I was laughing SO HARD. I would use the excuse that the mission has degraded my humor, but honestly I just have always had little boy humor haha. Another funny story that happened was I went to a member's house for dinner and found out that she went to high school with my aunt Brittany, uncle Brandon, and mom (her name is Heather Wilson for my mom's family reading this)! So I got to see some fun pictures of them all haha and it was fun to make the connections. Small world!
Spiritual thought:
My thought this week is on the importance of using your talents and spiritual gifts. I have been learning that we are all given different gifts and abilities, and we need to use them to bless the lives of others. Whether that be your family, friends, or others, we can all bless others around us with our talents and skills. So don't try and be someone else, be yourself and be who God created you to be. People will be drawn to you for who YOU are. So yeah that's all :)
I LOVE YOU HAVE A GOOD WEEK
