Hello Again to all!
So this week was kinda crazy!! After emailing
last week I was sent on a last minute exchange to the nearby town of Powell!! I
have been here all week and it has been awesome!! It’s been a crazy shuffle
because my companion went with another set of missionaries for a while and I
went with the zone leaders. After a few days one of the zone leaders went out
to Burlington leaving me and the other zone leader here in Powell! So Elder
Braden (that zone leader I'm here with) and I have been doing lots of
work!!
This week there were two amazing things that
happened!! The first was that we got to go to the temple as an entire zone!! It
was incredible to feel the spirit that is there in the temple!! Being in he temple with all the other missionaries brings a
whole new spirit into the temple!! The blessings that come from attending the
temple are in numerable!! Despite the fact that it was almost 250 miles round
trip, the feelings of the spirit and the feelings of mission unity are well
worth the sacrifice!!
The second amazing thing
that happened this week happened yesterday! When we were planning for
Sunday I had the thought to try something new! The plan was to be at the local
park (Washington Park) from 6:30 to 7:00 pm. This time however we were going to
arrive early and we were going to say a prayer before we did anything!! All
went as planned and during that 30-minute time we were able to find three new
people to teach!!! This experience really taught me a lot about prayer! The
main lesson that I learned was that as we make ourselves available to the Lord
by setting specific plans and following through with those plans, He will place
people in our path that He has prepared to talk with us! Heavenly Father wants
to bless our lives! As we trust Him and prepare ourselves to listen and follow
the guidance he gives us we can receive those blessings from Him!! Heavenly
Father Loves us all and we are His Children!! The blessings He has in store for
us are more than we can imagine!! As we do our best to follow His teachings we
will ultimately be able to return to live with Him in the Eternities!! I Love
this work and I know that this truly is the Gospel of Jesus Christ!!
I love you all!!!
