WEEK 5

Hey everyone!

This week was absolutely amazing!

First off, we are having a Zone challenge to get member lessons. This week we had 8 and next week we have 16 sooo were carrying the zone right now. We are very blessed in our work and we have a lot of stuff going on every week.

One miracle this week was we set some people on date for baptism! It was one of the most spiritual experiences I have had on the mission and it was so incredible. We are praying they will stay on date and get over the challenges they are facing. We believe they can do it so send prayers their way!

My mission president is amazing! We are asked to call him every time we set someone on date and we called him! He was so excited for us!

P-day today was awesome. We went to lunch with the other district in our zone and the Zone Leaders. We went to play basketball and we went bowling it was super fun. We took some awesome pictures so I will add those below!

Funny thing: its hard to explain unless you are here but I will share anyway. We were driving today and there is this missionary thing called "Tiwi" and it tracks your driving and gets mad at you if you speed. We always mess with my Zone Leader for speeding and we pretend that we are about to crash every time he accelerates or brakes. We were very dramatic and we yell " oh my gosh SLOW DOWN" and stuff like that. I don't know if you will think that is very funny but we laughed way too hard at that. Me and my Trainer are getting very close as friends and it is great.

Spiritual Thought: One scripture I loved this week was Mathew 14: 27-30. I shared it with a member family and I almost started crying because I felt the spirit so strong. There is something special about those verses so I invite you guys to read those and ponder how the Lord has helped you and picked you up when you were losing faith!

I love the work here and I love all the people! I love getting your emails and your prayers! There is a lot more I wish I could say more but I am so busy so I can't. Keep telling me how your life is going! I love you guys so much!
