Week 14: I'm tired of thinking of subject lines

-

 Hi everyone! 

Another really good really fast week. We only have one more week in the transfer which is insane. I feel like I just got to Gold Hill so this transfer has gone by so fast. We stayed pretty busy and had some fun this week and had a ton of lessons which is always sooo good. 

Highlights of the week!!:
1. I got to walk 2 German Shepards. They were really cool and I got my dog fix for the week so it was a win win. 
2. I started offering English help on a language exchange page I'm on. Big big big mistake but I've been able to help people from Poland, Turkey, Egypt, Peru, and India. One of them tried to get me to marry him sooo yah
3. We had exchanges so me and Sister Depew hung out for the day. She's a blast and its nice to switch things up for a little bit. 
4. On exchanges we did a salvation army coat drive with the zone. I felt like I was with deacons for 4 hours but the Elders just make things more fun. They are absolutely insane but an entertaining kind of insane. 
5. Institute!! Always a good time.

In Institute this week we discussed doubt and the importance of primary and secondary questions which was so good. Basically, you shouldn't lose your testimony on the big things by trying to solve the small things. I really needed that class because I've been kind of struggling trying to understand the more controversial things in the church. It was a good reminder to just focus on the things I know and not the things I can't understand. I think a lot of people would benefit from the talk we read so I'll link that. 


Anyways I hope you all are doing good and staying healthy. Remember to read your scriptures, say your prayers, and to wear your mask!!

Love you all!!!

  Hi guys! Hope you guys all had a great week! Our week was so busy but if was nice because we got so much done. I am really starting to get in a groove of missionary work to the point where I hope I get to train next transfer because I think it would be a blast! We are keeping busy with tons of service and member lessons which is good! Its nice to get out of the apartment and feel useful.  Highlights of the week! 1. We got to have interviews with President. He probably thinks I'm bonkers but he was laughing the whole time so I think thats a good sign hehe 2. We got to teach a new person David! He is super cool and really nice so we are hoping to continue our lessons.  3. We got to do a tour of the Laie temple with our friend Jeff. He has COVID and stage 4 cancer so he's very quarantined right now but he absolutely loved it.  4. We got to walk Sadie and Candy again and their owner made us charm bracelets. She's very much a retired hippy because she says groovy and ra...

Heyy everyone! This was another really good week. I can't remember half the things we did but that just means we stayed busy :) I finally feel like I'm getting into the groove of things and we are getting a ton of new missionaries next transfer so I'm hoping I will be able to train soon.  Highlights this week!! 1. We served at Butte Creek Mill in Eagle Point with the zone which is a historic mill that burned down.  2. Sister Hill filmed a video story so we got to hang out with the social media elders again. They are super fun to be around and they were able to join our member lesson yesterday.  3. We didn't get enough members to share posts this week so we had to brush our teeth with flour, salt, and pepper as punishment. It was gross but not as bad as eating the half cup of mayo.  4. We played volleyball with the STLs this morning!!! Always a good time  5. I made 14 loaves of rosemary bread this week and we took it to some ward members and it was great to see e...
