Week 62

What a great day to be alive! It is finally raining! lol. Oh how I miss rainy days! Stinks for missionary work, but I love the rain. We don't get it much here in Amarillo. 

This past Monday we went and cleaned an apt for a companionship in our district! That was great because man it was dirty!! I emptied the vacuum twice. hahaha. We tried by some people and met a few sweet less actives and  gave a blessing to a less active as well! On Tuesday we had District Meeting as usual. I had a flashback in that district meeting to when our last mission president gave an instruction at one zone conference! It brought me to tears to finally understand what he meant by that instruction! And I truly do feel it! (Alma 29:1) then we gave a blessing to the elders quorum president's wife! It was super awesome to be able to participate in that experience. :D Had service and then dinner at the President Lovett's (He is in our mission presidency and our ward)! It was great! We were able to teach his friend that came over and had a great evening. 

Wednesday, we did good amount of service again and then we went through a list of less actives from President Lovett. That was a good time. One family with a LA dad fed us! Then we tried by and dropped a few investigators. Thursday we did service as usual, you should see we have a trend of doing service in the less productive hours of the day, and then we had a comp study to prepare for our most important lesson of the week! We had dinner and a lesson with our investigator and her family! The bishop was there and it was in the Hussey's home! It was so sick!! She wants to be baptized and we are going to be setting up that date soon! Then we tried by a part member family.

Friday we had service and then we weekly planned and had comp study. We tried by some investigators and ended up playing basketball with some kids from the complex our investigator lives in. Then Elder Corrington did Spanish study and I cleaned and wrote a letter! lol. Saturday we had tons of service! We had community market and then did construction work for the Gomm's, our Ward Mission Leader, and we did service for a member who just moved into our ward, the Schmidts. Brother Gomm was like, "you should take your career path to construction because you are amazing at it"! lol. I was like, "with 19 years of practice from my dad I ought to be"! hahaha. We also picked up new mattresses for some missionaries that day! hahaha. Staying busy!! We had ice cream with the Schmidts and the Tascosa Elders and then got our calls on the way to their apt. :D Fun stuff. I am STAYING!!! So excited!! 

Sunday was a good day! I started a boss study on covenants! I'm learning that I NEED to more fully understand them and that will change my life! Great day of goodbyes for Elder Corrington while I set up a ton of lessons! So Dope!!!!

Week 61

Pretty good week overall. The days went by super slow!!! But, my study today helped me find a solution to that problem :D 

This week we taught some sweet people. Went on exchanges with Elder Hatch! I TRULY LOVED that experience! I was able to help him and myself grow at the same time. I love being able to help those around me and serve them. 

I cut two elders hair this week and my own after sports this morning. 

Cooked most of the zone breakfast and then balled it up this morning! Finally got back on fire!! lol. In the second set of games, two other elders and I just kept passing the ball and popping 3's! It was sick. So much running because of the no break... but had a good time. :D

Had 3 investigators come to church! It was a super fun time. I really enjoyed all the week. Had tons of good service with tons of missionary opportunities.

Ate ice cream at an ice cream social for volunteers at the botanical gardens! Got cool pics as well! lol. 

Today is my comps b-day so we are basically doing whatever he wants for the day. He's an awesome guy and I love him a lot! Having the time of my life being the Lord's mouthpiece! Hope you all have a good week! I love yall! :D
