Iakwe everyone! Merry Christmas!
So last week I wrote a email and then when I was about to send it out it literally was GONE and I wasn't about to re write it so here's a update from the last 2 week and HOLY COW a lot has happened, bare with me
☆First, we went to the temple last Tuesday! President made changes and we get to go every transfer now instead of every other transfer which is so exciting! We went to the Taylorsville temple and it was absolutely beautifullllllll. Love that place
☆ We had zone conference/a mission tour last week and Elder Kevin W. Pearson of the 70, utah area president, and it was FUEGO! spiritual high fr fr. We had a theme of what we're going to be a lifelong disciple of Christ.The cool thing about Elder Pearson and his wife is that they're very straight forward but so loving. So basically, we all know what we need to do to be better missionaries and disciples of Christ and we're super excited to apply all the good stuff we learned. President Watson also picked out 8 missionaries to meet with Elder Pearson and get interviewed by him. I was one of the missionaries who had the opportunity to be interviewed by him and it was a great experience!
☆The last few weeks were CAOS because we had 2 pros exchanges and this past week we had 3 back to back exchanges which was insanity but there was no other time to do them so you gotta do what you gotta do yu know. I went on exchanges with Sister Grant, Sister Henley and Sister Pincock. Sister Grant and I were able to find 3 new friends to teach and put one of them on date for baptism! It was a great day and we saw so many miracles!
☆Jada and Vanessa got baptized last week and this week Tessa got baptized! All 3 services were incredible and so spirit filled! At Jada's baptism service they did a little testimony meeting as well. One of Jada's friends, Marley came to the baptism and also bore her testimony. She talked about how she's not a member of the church and has been to quite a few different church's but loved the spirit she felt. It was so cool and we talked to her after and she's interested in meeting with us!
☆This week we met as a mission for the christmas devotional. Jared Halverson and Nathen Pacheco came since apparently they're besties with President and Sister Watson. Nathan Pacheco sang us some of his songs and it was so cool, he let us sing some with him and that was a cool experience. Jared Halverson also shared some experiences with us about his own mission and his testimony of the church. Learned a lot from him and the devotional was super good!
☆Went to the marshallese christmas party and it was INSANITY and so much fun. I think they literally partied from 10am-10pm that day. They performed a few dances for us and had lots of food. It was so fun. They also like throwing candy right at our faces so basically yeah, they like to party.
2 Nephi 19:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace
As a zone we did a little devotional on Christmas Eve and shared what our favorite names of Christ were and it was cool because most everyone had different names that resignated with each of us. I love his name of healer because when Christ was here on earth his physically healed those in need, those who others woudnt touch or even look at. Even though he isn't physically with us today He still heals us from all the trials and afflictions we go through. I've seen him heal me and I've been so blessed to see him heal others. Especially being able to witness how as others come to Christ they become healed.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
There's a little rundown of the last 2 weeks! I hope y'all have been having a great christmas! Love you all!
