week 14
Hi everyone! I hoppe your last weeks of summer are going great! I cant believe that its August already!! My week has been pretty jam packed! So heres a little overview of my week..
Tuesday- WE WENT TO JASPER AND SAW THE MTNS
Wednesday- Zone Conference in North Edmonton with a new
implementation called Tiwi for our cars.
Thursday- We got Facebook and had a day long training on
using smartphones and social media.
Friday-Saturday- complete blur lol
Sunday- 2 of our investigators came to church!!!
Monday- We volunteered at Heritage Days!
Jasper was just the most amazing thing ever. Haha I know it
has been just 3 months but oh i wanted to just shed a little tear when i saw
the mountains. Ah! They are gorgeous!!!!! The glacier lakes too. Everyone needs
to go to Jasper. Hands down. It was so much fun. The member that took us forgot
to exit so we toured a little bit of Edmonton before going to Jasper lol. We
saw elk, mountain goats, mountain sheep, and some white tail! I loved
it!! :)) Zone Conference was great and we had interviews! President Pattison is
so great!! He is just so inspired. The training he gave was all on faith and
the way we look at things. We just always have to have our faith lenses on
because when we are going through something tough, we are learning and growing
and thats our whole purpose of why we are here on earth. So we have 6
investigators and life is good in Beaumont. It was really cool to see the Lords
hand in it all. We had a supper appointment with a family on Friday and they
ended up cancelling. Well another family signed up and well, our new
investigator was over (we didnt know him until this). The timing was perfect!
We met this person and they openly told us of the trial he was going through.
We talked about how the Book of Mormon can answer our questions so he took up
the challenge and asked one right there. His concern was answered right then
and there so he decided to ask another question and the Book of Mormon answered
it again!! :)) It was so cool to see the power behind the Book of Mormon!! Our
investigator Lance came to church and it was great and he said something that
was really cool. He forgot the address at home and here in Beaumont there is
like a billion churches so he was about to turn back but he said that he saw
Jesus Christ on our building and knew that had to be it. That seems to be a
misconception here is that the church worships Joseph Smith and I love being a
missionary to help people understand that Christ is at the center of
everything. Its the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!! :)) Like the
same church Christ established when he was on the earth is back in its
fullness!! And he did that through the prophet Joseph Smith!! I just love it.
Yesterday we went to Heritage Days and it was a blast. That festival is HUGE.
There were booths of like every country in the world set up and they had
performances going on! We collected food tickets by the buses for the food bank
and we were able to meet tons of people. Alot of people were like "theres
the missionaries!!!" and it reminded me of when id say that at Pioneer
Days so it was weird to be on the other side of it! haha its so fun! :))
Anyway, i love you all so much!!Thank you SO MUCH for all your love and support
<3 you guys are the best!!
