So I don't have much time to write a very lengthy email, but I'll see what I can do :)
This week was a ton better than last week, so that was a blessing for sure.
I
had more or less my last district meeting this past week. Next week is
something different, and then the week after that is interviews, so I'm
kind of done with having to prepare district meeting agendas and stuff.
I'm kind of bummed about it.
So I pretty much don't want to go
home. Like I really want to see my family and all, but I really don't
want my mission to end. So I do want to go home, but I really don't at
the same time. It's a weird feeling :) So I'm just trying to ignore the
fact that I'm going home in 16 days. :P
Something
that I'm stoked about is that Elder Oaks is coming to speak to the
mission on the 16th, so I get to have an Apostle speak to me right
before I go home :) (This is what is replacing district meeting :))
Something
cool that happened (you could even call it a miracle) is that the the
Clarkston Sisters called us and told us a really interesting experience
they had. There was a certain fellow in their area book that was written
down as a former investigator or something, so they decided to go try
and see him. Turns out that he lives in our area and was already
baptized a few years ago. But they didn't know that, and figured since
it was in their area book, it was in their area. So they go over, and he
tells them that he is already a member in the Grand Blanc Ward (Which
was a surprise to them) but what was cool, is that his non-member wife
was there, and she expressed interest in learning more about the church,
so they talked to her and set up an appointment for us to go and teach
her! It's interesting, because we've gone over there several times, and
we were never able to meet his wife because she has a crazy work
schedule, but the Sisters were able to be there at the right time to
talk with her and set up an appointment. I really don't understand how
he made it into their area book in the first place, but it all worked
out for the best! The Lord works in mysterious ways, I guess.
Anyways, as always, thanks for reading!
