COLD WEEK

Oh man, the cold weather, its mental. I hate it. I can't imagine what its like for my bruv Timbo in Nebraska, or whoever in New York.

 

So yeah its been a pretty memorable week I'd say. Lennon received the priesthood on Sunday! Great stuff. Love him. I should've gotten a picture with him (But my camera's SD card is full haha) so yeah. He looks like a gangster without a tie though! Hahaha

 

I sent more pictures to BDN but they're all weird, so he'll have to figure it out. whoops.

 

Anyways, yeah, the week went great because... Well, I experienced a lot of trial, and a lot of faith as well. We had Zone Training, Elder Hegerhorst and Hanks are the Zone Leaders, Hegerhorst makes me laugh SO hard how he acts. Great meeting, great meeting. I learned quite a bit. but I learned most when I put it into practice. We had a really tough week in terms of the work, because we are basically OUT of a teaching pool! Gotta find new investigators!!! So we did. A lot. We knocked. many doors. So many doors. And the words of our leaders were stuck in my head, about how we have to have FAITH that we can find the lord's elect. And I was just thinking, "Heavenly father, I don't honestly know if I believe I'm going to find someone tonight, or this week, or if we're just going to run into door slam after door slam." and then about 5 minutes later, we decide toknock 5 houses in a little road, and we found this AWESOME indian woman whose a Christian who we're seeing this Wednesday. Basically, the Lord awarded me despite my lack of faith, and because of that it really increased my faith.

 

ANYWAYS yeah it was a great week, I love the scriptures and jesus Christ so much. And a good portion of that love is from his patience and mercy for me. Because I'm not perfect. I have to go though! Its P-day today! Woohoo! No plans, no plans. Gonna probably shop for food, eat, sleep, haha. The good life. love ya all!
