This week was super interesting...
So first off, we stayed really busy this week with 2 tradeoffs. My first tradeoff I stayed with Elder Hendricks in Fleming and we had a great time. We were able to find Marie, find a dead squirrel, and set up a few great lessons! Elder Hendricks is a 6'4" guy and so lots of people were confused when Elder Kesler wasn't there. Haha we had a really good time together. We also walked over 15 miles going around to people. We then traded back at district Council the next day and then went on a tradeoff with the zone leaders! I went to a Spanish area this time and was with Elder Peterson. We also had a great time. At dinner, the Spanish member feeding them along with 2 other Spanish missionaries said they would speak in English so I understood. That lasted about 1 minute so I spent most of the dinner confused. Haha
Great Times! Before we traded back, we had a lesson with Devonte a person who is preparing to get baptized next week. He is so so so awesome! He is probably 6'6''-6'8''and is 16 years old. He graduated high school last year and is looking to get into a few collages and has already had offers for scholarships some colleges. He has an awesome testimony and really has his feet planted on the gospel path and involves God in every part of his life! He is going to go places!
Besides 2 tradeoffs, not much else happened this week. This week was very stressful but prayer and faith really made all the difference. One miracle this week that happened was we went out with a member, Brother Barker. He is awesome and took us to a lesson with Rick who we haven't been able to see in a long time. Then he took us to a recent convert and we were able to share a little message with her. After he took us to Hardies, he told us about a friend that he was going to have over to his house for us to meet the next day (Sunday). We were able to go by and have a great lesson! I am so greatful for members who truly understand Member missionary work! It makes missionary work so much more effective. Danny is also so awesome. He has Brother Barker as a friend that he trusts which makes it so much easier for us to teach him. What a blessing!
Besides that, we went disc golfing on Monday at a huge disc Golf course. It was legend! We also had a few amazing lessons this past week. It was a great one. I listened to a few general conference talks again and one thing that stuck out to me was the idea of being riveted to Christ. I love the idea of being firmly fastened to Christ. How we can do that is through living the gospel every day. I love you all and hope you have a great week!
