Change is Good!

April 5, 2021

Hey!

We had transfers this week and I am now serving in Chambers Creek in Tac-South! Last transfer went by sooo fast! It's crazy. My new companion is Elder Rose and he's cool. I do miss the sunrise ward but the transition has gone really well. Elder Rose has just had to explain (in detail) all the people we are trying to teach. It's always hard to go to a new area and a new ward but I'll get used to it. I'm slowly getting to know the missionaries in the zone and the members in our ward. I barely even got to know the members in sunrise haha! It's all good though and I know I'm here for reason. 

A couple highlights from this week was general conference and Easter! We got to go over to a couple members houses for general conference and it was awesome. Its so cool listening to a modern day prophet and apostles that are here for us at this specific time. I absolutely love general conference especially as a missionary! They had an Easter egg hunt for the primary and Me and Elder Rose got to hide them all. It was a lot of eggs. It was great though!

Little thought for this week:

I've grown to really enjoy change. Change is always hard but its necessary to continue growing as a missionary and as a person in general. I know for me it was hard even going out on a mission because of all the unknowns, BUT I'm so glad I did and it's insane how much you grow. If you really think about it, that's why we are here on earth in the first place! We couldn't grow anymore in the premortal life and we needed to change (or gain a body) to continue to grow! Change is necessary but hard. Its always hard leaving an area but one thing I've learned from our past zone conference is to never dwell on the past. Or as president says: Regret. Just gotta keep pressing forward and looking for the good. I'm grateful to be serving in tac south and to be a missionary!
