It's been a great week full of highlights. So much so it's taken a hot second to write out this email.
Early in the week, we got the
opportunity to attend a ward activity in the park. We ended up just playing
football and frisbee with all the youth.
Wednesday we had a great zone
conference. Lots of different missionaries led a lot of different trainings on
how to find new people around us using various methods. It was a blast talking
to other missionaries, especially since we were joined by those in my last
zone.
We helped out our friend Trevor with
raking his lawn on Thursday, and in return, he bought us a bunch of groceries,
much more than we thought he would so we're pretty stocked up at the moment.
Saturday morning, we got our friend
Hannah to meet the Sister missionaries 8n the YSA and got her excited for some
of their FHE and group activities, so hopefully, she starts making good
connections in the church.
Saturday evening we had a special
opportunity to attend a late-night fireside with Brad Wilcox. He gave us a
wonderful talk about our divine purpose here on the Earth and what we can do as
missionaries. We even got the chance to talk with him and take pictures so we
didn't end up getting home until midnight.
Sunday we had stake conference and
it capped off an awesome productive and spiritual week. As Sis. Richards was
speaking, she made an example out of her missionaries and had us stand up, so
we thought we were off the hook for the rest of the meeting. Turns out, Elder
Johnson of the area seventy missed having a choir, so he had all the
missionaries go up to the front to sing called to serve. That afternoon we also
had an awesome Easter lunch with a few member families as well.
It was a pretty eventful week and
the only thing I regret is not getting more photos.
