Hello!!!! I hope that you are all doing incredible:) I'm so grateful for technology and for Facebook so that I can see updates in your lives! It snowed up in Green Bay & in the UP! The winter is coming!
This week has been so awesome!! We were able to go on tons of mini exchanges with companionships that went all the way up to Sturgeon Bay! It was the first time I had been up to that point of the mission and it was gorgeous! Exchanges are the best because of how much you can learn, and I learned a lot. It was fun too because I got to see lots of missionaries who I hadn't been able to talk with in a while!
My good friend, Nick, was able to be baptized and recieve the Holy Ghost yesterday! It was amazing. While we were waiting for him to change, Elders Hansen, Uchytil(we are in a trio on Sunday mornings & at church for now) & I were able to stand and teach the Restoration! There were tons of non members there and we invited them all to be baptized! Being a missionary is the best! Also, look at his hands haha they are huuge.
I just finished studying in Matthew 25, which talks a lot about being prepared for when Christ comes! I think it also teaches us that we always need to be prepared for every day in our lives, and we do that by ... reading the scriptures(every day), praying(every day) & going to church(every week)! The more prepared we are for whatever situation in life, the happier we can be! I invite you to study Matthew 25 this week and think of ways that you can prepare yourself for this life & day to day activities and also for after this life! I promise that as we become prepared for life we will be happier and will have a greater ability to feel the Spirit in our lives:)
DO GOOD, BE GOOD
Love,
