Family,
Well by God’s Grace I’m still doing good! This
week we had a busy week yet again, and the days go by so fast! This was
seriously the fastest 6 weeks! I can’t believe it’s already transfers this
week, which means that we will be very busy!! just like always :) But the
highlight of the week was we were finally able to go and do an endowment
session!!! It was so sweet! I loved it! I was so happy
I was able to go! It seriously really helped strengthen me and keep me going! Kind
of a new start!
Dang what is up with all of the health issues
in the basin? Tell bro Mackay, Bishop Ririe, and Jande that they are in my
prayers~! I’m happy that they are improving small!
Dang Alan is home off his mission, great Kraymer
will never get married because he will just be around all of his high school
buddies again ha But I’m happy with that because I want to be around for
kraymer's wedding!
I honestly don’t really remember a whole lot
this week; I like to look in my journal to see what I was thinking and doing a
year ago! It’s so crazy haha.
I actually had a neat experience this last week
that I would like to share. If it sounds weird or you don’t really understand
what I’m trying to say I’m sorry just know that I understand. We had a man
around 25 come to church last week and because of his busy work schedule and
schooling schedule it is hard for us to see him. We were finally able to see
him on Saturday where we taught him at the church (which is right next to the
temple, so it is a perfect place for a first discussion) and when we were
teaching him I was just thinking where have I met this man before?? He looks so
familiar, sounds so familiar and so forth. But as I was thinking about this a
thought popped in my mind saying that “you know this man, and you have known
him for a very long time, you were friends in the pre mortal world”... and
after that I just felt peace! It was so awesome and hard to explain unless you
were me, but it is not the first time where I have had that same feeling or thought
and the person ends up getting baptized! Now obviously I don’t know if all of
this is correct, but it felt right! I guess you would just need to experience
it to understand it. Maybe other missionaries know what I mean. So we are going
to be working with this man by all means! Hopefully he will be able to meet
with us during our busy schedule!
Also, today we had a sweet soccer match where it
was legit!!! We played our ward vs. another ward and we had jerseys, socks and
everything! It was great! I played defense the whole time because these boys
were way good haha. It started around 9 and finished about 12 so I got burned. haha
I’m turning to Obruni (white person) because
of having a truck and everything so it was good for me to be in the sun haha.
After we get done emailing we have to go and meet with president and finish all
the transfers! We were thrown a curve ball this week by two of the French
speakers needed more time to learn English and so we had to re due a bunch of
stuff haha. So we will pray it all goes well. Family I love you all and hope
all is going good back home! Enjoy your week.
