Monday after emails and slight bumps in the road, we helped a kid out with math. And his parents were thankful for that and wanted us to come back. Then we had dinner at our Ward Mission Leaders house, and when we were taking extra food home, we got a call to give a blessing so we dropped by the house, gave them our extra food, and then the blessing. It was really fun doing that for them.
Tuesday was my 19th Birthday. And Elder Horman made brownies in the morning for me. So I had brownies and a breakfast burrito for my breakfast of champions😂😂. We had District Council and talked about being a 'Challenging and a Testifying Missionary' and that was really good. Then Stuttgart went with us and we Blitzed the area for a while. Then we had dinner at a house who the Sisters are working with, but the husband and wife speak full Mandarin. It was actually really cool though. And they all sang to me on my Birthday, and I was thankful for that.
Wednesday we had a few appointments with people. Some fell through and others went pretty well. One of them was a little hectic because of the grandson, but we know he felt something. But we are going back and re-teaching a few things just to make sure he understood it. And we met a really cool guy who wants the best for his family, and he was very interested in the Book of Mormon, so that's exciting. We had the Book of Mormon study class and that went really well, then we came home and crashed.
Thursday was rainy, but we had some good success. We found a new person and had some pretty good lessons. We had a handoff lesson with the Sisters, they gave us a person they were teaching because they felt like it and we had a pretty interesting lesson with him. Then after we left and had dinner with a Missionary Senior Couple at the church and then had Missionary Coorelation Meeting.
Friday was a little show, but good. We went finding for a little, had little success, talked with a member for a little though. Then we went to the Church to give one of the Sisters a blessing because she wasn't feeling too good. Then we helped some members that were there to clean up the Church building. Then after we were going to meet Stuttgart half way for exchanges, then we ended up meeting them in Stuttgart, and then me and Elder Lee drove back to the Church for a Zone Zoom Call and then went to the apartment.
Saturday we were supposed to have a lot of lessons planned but almost all of them fell through. And it sucked a lot, and Elder Lee got a rock thrown at him by a little kid, but one things came awesome out of the day. So we were going to have a lesson with Fransisco and Macey but they weren't there, but we met another guy who has close affiliations in the Anderson home quite frequently, and we had a super awesome lesson with him. He is so prepared for the Gospel! Sadly he recently is taking a job where he is going to move around a lot but we are keeping in touch with him so we are excited for that. Then we got a ride up to Little Rock because we had Stake Conference. And that was good. Then we stayed the night at the Pinnacle Mountain Elders apartment.
Sunday we had the General Session of Stake Conference and that was good. I'm putting the notes on the email as well. After that we got a ride back home we did some planning and studying. Then we visited a less-active member and had a good discussion with him. He gave us food and we left. We came home, ate dinner, and had Call-Ins.
You know.. I want to bear my testimony here. I know that this church is true. And I know that the Book of Mormon is another witness of Jesus Christ and that we have the fulness of the Gospel here upon the Earth once more. I know that to be true and you can too. I love you all and I hope you have an awesome week!
