So this week we had an AMAZING, once in a mission
experience. We had Elder Kearon, from the first quorm of the 70 and in the
european area presidency, came and talked to us. The mission was split into two
different meetings, so i was able to see lots of missionaries.
But even better than seeing friends were those messages.
They were so uplifting. Hermana Deere (pres. wife) gave a talk where she just
acknowledged that lots of us are feeling very weary. But then she read us a
scripture ¨´be not weary in well doing´´ and reminded us why we are here. It
was so perfect to have her acknowledge our weariness. Because its definately
there, but that dosen´t mean we stop.
But then we talked about attacking the day, and starting the
day on the right foot. About being an energetic and excited missionary. And how
we are doing very well, but we can always do better.
Elder Kearon and his wife both gave wonderful talks about
the atonement and finding and teaching and baptizing. Honestly, so much
wonderful stuff and inspiration. I´d love to share it with you all, but it was
from 11- almost 5 pm so that would probably take up all my email time. :) But
just know that the Spirit was so strong and I was lifted and I´m working my
hardest. It was at perfect timing too, it really has helped me want to keep on
it. Attack the day! :)
We have a new goal for this week of bringing 250
investigators to church this sunday. its a big goal. But we´re going to do
it!!! (normally we bring around 120 max as a mission) Because no one gets
baptized until they get to church.
Also, all of you boy scouts would be proud of me. My bag has
been slowly dying aka, one of my bag handles is so stretched out its twice as
long as the other. But I duct taped the crazies out of it and now its all
fixed! I figure, it only has to last 2 more months. And I´m determined to come
home with the same bag I left with. its my miracle bag, it should have died
like 5 months ago, but its just been holding out. Symbol of my mission haha.
Duct taped all up.
Love you guys a bunch!! Attack the day!!
Loves,
Hna Woolley
