Hey y'all! How are you guys doing? Hope you all are doing well. And I hope everyone got a lot out of General Conference! A lot happened and it's exciting! This week wasn't packed with a lot of events, but it was packed with Missionary Work... If that makes sense.
So after P-Day, we got a message from a Sister asking about if we visited this one person, so we were like not recently, but we will head down in that area then! So we drove down to a town called Potts Camp, which is near the bottom corner of our area. We stop by the house, met the Husband, but they kindly declined us because they were set on being Pentecostal. It was a bummer but it was nice that they weren't rude about it. Then after we tried a less actives house, no one answered, then we tried finding a recent convert of a year now.. He hasn't texted us back, so we tried going to their house.. But one problem, we couldn't find it. Google Maps and LDS Tools was not in our favor which sucked a lot. So we decided to head back home.
Tuesday not a lot happened, except for the fact that at one point, I was covered in horse dust crap.. So to give context, we went over to a members house to help them load stuff for their son who was getting married soon. So they wanted to use a horse trailer, which wasn't cleaned up yet. So we started cleaning it up, and I decided to use the Electric Blower to get the rest of the stuff out. Needless to say at the end of doing all that and after all of the loading, I was covered in crap. So it was nice to take a shower after that XD. Also, Yoo-hoos are really freaking good. May have chugged 2 cans.. Oops. Then after the shower and getting ready, we visited a less active and read the Book of Mormon with her. Then we visited another Less active, met another son and a grandson, and I had really good burgers there. Holy crap it was crazy good haha.
Wednesday we had Zone Conference, and on the way up we passed by the FedEx Official Building which was cool to see. Zone Conference was pretty good, we talked about Daily Goals, and about being Bold, and talked about Satan and his tactics. So that was a pretty good Conference. Then we came back home and had Dinner, and that was all it from Wednesday.
Thursday we wanted to try to stop by a few houses before we went up to Lamar to help Gary. One person wasn't home, but we gave a card to someone that answered. Then we were heading to the Car and we saw 3 people walk out and we talked with them and they invited us back which was cool. Then after that we drove up to Lamar in our Service clothes, and helped Gary and his group out with Beans and all that Farm stuff. We did that for most of the day and then we talked about a list of people we didn't know much about.
Friday we did the Animal Shelter again, which wasn't a struggle this time hahah. Then after we did our studies, I watched Meet the Mormons (Which isn't Mormons anymore, since after Conference and such). I invite all who haven't watched it to watch it, it's really good. It helps show what we do and our lives. Then after Studies we did Weekly Planning, had a cool revelatory experience about a few people that we now have plan for action. Then we had dinner at a less actives sister's house, which was pretty good. Then we came back and did some final touches to Weekly Planning.
Saturday's Events went as:
Invite people to watch Conference through Facebook
Watched Conference at the Morrisons family with another sister
After Conference we went up to Lamar to try and visit people
Neither houses were home, then we tried a house people never were able to get into, and we got in! It was a really nice convo with them and they expressed interest in a event going on at the End of the Month. So that was exciting, and Gary texted us later tipping his hat for us for being able to get in
Sunday's Events went as:
Invited more to watch Conference
We watched Conference at Mockys house
After the sessions, we tried figuring out where to go, and after a while of no luck, we decided to take a shorter, yet longer in minutes, seneric way to Brother Roswells. It was super cool. I loved it so much.
Had a good convo with the Roswell family about Conference and all those events.
So basically, my little learned ordeal this week. We are all important, and we must accept everyone as who they are, be kind to those who are mean, and serve others. You will be blessed in doing so.
I love you all, and I hope the Lord is blessing you.
Much Love,
Elder Braxton Hotton
