Yeah for making it another week. At this point im actually happy for myself hahaha missions are HARD but SO GOOD!!
Tuesday: we tracted so much of the day!! A lot of the homes here are summer homes so it can be difficult finding people hahaha
Wednesday: we had a lesson with Josh!! We only spent about 15 minutes with him but it was really good!! We taught him the first part of the pos! He has very basic beliefs so im soooo excited to be able to add to them!
We had lunch with a member and also made some little bags for the homeless people in blairsville!
We also had institute and wow i love institute here with all the old folks! We read alma 34 and talked a lot about how the time to repent is NOW! Our attitudes, tendincies, desires, & intents will go with us into the next life so its important that we better ourselves now!
Thursday: we met with a member who has been long gone but showed up to church on Sunday! She is wanting to become more active and really strive to make it to the temple! She is so awesome and lives in a cute little trailer! (Never thought i would say a trailer was cute hahahah)
For the rest or the day we tracted and we met someone named Ray! He introduced himself as " hi im Ray, like a ray of sunshine" it was so cute and now you betcha im gonna name a little boy ray to be a lil ray of sunshine awe!
Friday: we tracted in the morning & then went to these cute pop up shops!! We talked to lots of people and one guy just kept asking us questions and questions because he was so interested in what we do and why were doing it hahah. In the evening the Murphy north carlolina sisters picked us up to go to rosewell to sleep over for Elder Bednar the next day!! It was so fun!!
Saturday: Elder Bednar came!! We first arrived and took a mission picture with him!! We all got in our position and then this big truck pulls up and Elder Bednar gets out & were all just watching! ya it was pretty cool! Then he walks over and gets in the pic and i was 6 people away from him so kinda close lol it was really special to have an apostle be able to come to our mission!! Elder Bednar didnt talk to us he made it more of a group discussion and had us all ask questions! Something i loved was he talked about ministering one by one & i loved that because Jesus Christ really did care for people as individuals and i have learned how important it is to truly care & love others! Wooo what a perfect time for me to be better at that then during the christmas season right?
Sunday: we did a light the world presentation for the branch to help members KNOW the light, BE the light, and SHARE the light! We had them watch the christ child video & YES i LOVE that video! We invited all the members to invite a friend to watch it with them in their home & i wanna invite you all to do that too!!
I love you all and pray we all remember the true meaning of christmas! Have fun & keep being you!!
