Week 53: Buzzed, Blue Springs and 1 Year!!!

-

How’s it going everyone? Wow I cannot believe it's been 1 year as a missionary! This last year has been the wildest, hardest, unexpected, life changing, and most amazing year of my life. I am so grateful for the opportunity I have had to put Christ’s name on my chest everyday and try to forget about myself and love and serve as he did.


There has been some changes lately, some to where I am at now and some to my appearance hahah.  I am back in KC!! (Kind of) I am in Blue Springs which is in the KC Zone. I am with Elder Hogan from Kaysville Utah. He was reassigned from the Ivory Coast in Africa and is French speaking. Wow he is the best! A Great missionary and even a better person. I am going to learn so much from him.

We also live with 2 other Elders. Elder Sanns from Pocatello Idaho, and Elder Burkett, the big dog from Nampa Idaho. Hahaha we have lots of fun! We pretty much live at the church because our apartment has no connection because it's like a cave.

I was studying in Alma 14 when Amulek turns to Alma and asks him if he thinks they will be burned too. Alma's response is amazing, he says "...Be it according to the will of the Lord. But, behold, our work is not finished;" Wow what great Faith. I hope that this next year I can be like Alma and no matter what happens, I will submit my will to the Lord, and accomplish His work. Like Alma My work is not finished. I am so excited for what this next year brings. Hope you all have a good week!

Week 27: Examples of Charity Towards Me

你哋好! This week was good. We were able to teach many member lessons. Also I did a couple of video chats with Sister Phillips and another Hong Kong Elder to practice my Cantonese. I love being able to practice speaking and hope to continue to progress and get better and better. We were doing one of our phone lessons with a member of the ward, and she offered to buy us Olive Garden and had it delivered to our apartment. We really appreciated her offer and could not turn it down. That was the first act of charity. The second, was by a less active lady in the ward that same night! She called us and told us to meet her at Walmart and that she wanted to buy groceries for us. So we met up with her. Trying to be as respectful and thankful to her as possible  we got  just what we we thought we needed. She saw our cart and then walked isle to isle with us and forced us to buy a ton more. She ended up spending a ton of money on us. It was the nicest thing ever! Great examples of C...
