Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well. This week was interesting to say the least.
We got our first snow! It didn't stick but it was pretty!
We had exchanges on Tuesday and they were so good. I learned a lot and we saw so many miracles. We got in contact with at least one person everywhere we went.
This is where things started to get interesting. We woke up Wednesday with no water. We thought it was temporary but our water and electricity would end up being out until Saturday night. (The grocery store we live on top of had a flood)
When we got home Saturday we discovered flooded floors in our apartment. Luckily the church owns an empty room in the building that we are able to stay in until ours is fixed.
But in the midst of all of this we were able to go to the baptism of a friend that Sister Anderson taught in her last area and work at The Festival of Lights (the temples light display).
Spiritual thought:
Through the craziness of this week we still saw tender mercies and miracles from God. We had ward members help us, we were able to stay with our STL when our building was "condemned", and though we didn't hit our number goals we got in contact with SO many inactives and people were extra nice.
In Elder Holland’s talk "Lifted Up upon the Cross" he talks about lifting your cross, following Christ, and letting the challenges strengthen you. This is so true! Never forget it!
Love you all!
