HELLO EVERYONE!! Hope everyone's smiling and having a fantastic day today. I didn't write a weekly last week, so be prepared to read a hefty letter this week. Might want snacks.. just saying... you're gonna be here a while
First off, we had zone conference on thursday and it was amazing!! I got to see several of my old comps which is always a blast. It's fun seeing other missionaries that you used to serve around. President Metts gave a super great training about listening and acting on spiritual promptings. Our mission calls them BINGS which stands for Be Inspired Now Go! It was great though and he told a story about when he worked in air traffic control and he didn't listen to the spirit... and two planes almost crashed into each other! Crazy! Always listen to the spirit. Sometimes it won't logically make sense, but listen anyways!
We found a new little family to teach and they are awesome. Its just a father and his 8 year old son but they are so elect. Hes from Ghana. Funny story, he actually thought he was a member!! But he wasn't baptized by proper authority so we're reaching him everything and it's the best.
Also our bishop is an absolute legend. He is the definitely of charity and love. We go and knock doors with him for 3-4 hours every Saturday. We stop by SO many people and most of them are less active that we are trying to bring back to church. It's a good time and we actually learn a lot from bishop. Hes an awesome missionary.
The youth had an activity Wednesday night with the stake. We were invited and a couple other missionaries were there too. They had a bunch of games for everyone to play. It was outside on the field next to our church building. They had spikeball, cornhole, disc golf, football, musical chairs, and a bunch more. It was not only a fun time but we also got to get closer with the youth in our ward.
Today we went to... *drum roll please* MOUNT RAINIER! I got to go last transfer too and it's so cool. There was still quite a bit of snow towards the top of the mountain but it was better than last time. A super nice member family took us all. It took basically the entire pday but worth it!
