Things are going well, out here in Idaho, The big news this
week is that transfers are upon us. Im shipping out to Black foot west and will
be joining Elder Holmes. Im pretty excited for the move! I'll miss Montpelier
but it’s nice to get a fresh start!
Monday- Welp for p-day we skinned an Elk and had a district
Family home evening. We had a lot of plans for the evening but they all
cancelled.
Tuesday and Wednesday- We went down to Cokeville, we are
still trying to figure out everything the other Elders had going on, we visited
a few people that I remembered, one was a less active family more so the
father, and they have been very inviting and friendly. They have been making
changes and are contemplating a move. The we saw a couple that is wanting to be
baptized, they have a bit that they need to do before getting baptized, one of
the big ones is getting married, but they really want the gospel and want to
make these changes so it’s awesome to see that desire they have.
Thursday and Friday- Kind of a slow couple of days but also
way to warm, everything started melting it rained and now there’s flooding all
across the valley and really all across Idaho. It’s really bad in the bear lake
area, like there are so many people sandbagging and just trying to keep things
dry, some people are worried about the reservoir filling up to much but I guess
just pray for the best.
Saturday- we got the word that I’m going to Blackfoot so
today was mostly good byes same with Sunday but on Sunday we also spoke out in Dingle.
I spoke about being spiritually awake. one of my favorite words in scriptural
use is awake. There’s a difference between not sleeping and actually being
awake. But to be spiritually awake means we are actively seeking the council of
the Holy Ghost, we aren't just reading the scriptures but likening them unto
ourselves, we seek opportunities to be like the savior and to serve and love
others. It’s definitely hard at times to stay awake, especially when you’re
first waking up but as we make these things a common practice and attitude, it
becomes easier to be awake and attentive to the spirit, and to continually have
the love of the Lord in our hearts.
It was a pretty good week, and I hope you are all having a
good week also!
Love you guys
Just beautiful! Your drive and dedication only helps those kiddos grow in even more ways. They are so tuned in to these sort of things. Keep up the great work... May will be here before you know it!
