Hello all! I hope you are doing well with one less hour of sleep! 🙃😉 (Daylight savings is just great!)
This week had its ups and its downs, we had about 4 lessons get cancelled. It really stinks when that happens because it is usually last minute and we then have to plan to do something productive for that time which usually means Facebook finding!
I did have a few people accept my requests and we sent videos introducing ourselves, hopefully they go somewhere! We did a good amount of service this week which was awesome. On Tuesday we helped a ward member move a bunch of dirt that he ordered from his driveway to his backyard, it was great to be outside!
On Wednesday we did some service at a cemetery preservation site, that was really cool, although partway through that service my nose started to gush blood and it got all over my mask, gross! Wednesday we also had exchanges! I went with one of our Zone Leaders, we had a good exchange. He gave me some great advice on being a better missionary!
Thursday we had our mission wide conference. It was so powerful! I always learn lots. We talked a lot about the Restoration, spefically the Restoration Proclamtion, if you haven't read that in awhile I encourage you all to go bakc and read it, and then read it again! It brings the Spirit so strong. It is so cool to think we are a part of the ongoing Restoration! During that conference our mission nurse got up to speak to us, she told us all a powerful message that I want to share with you all, I will attach it to the email.
We also watched a missionary devotional this week that talked about the importance of prayer and how we need to consecrate our work to the Lord, there was a cool diagram shown that I then re-created, I will attach it below! Well this has been really long, haha. I love being a missionary and I love this Gospel with all my heart!
I know there will be ups and downs throughout my mission, I have already experinced both, but I know that Christ is there with me every step of the way!
Love, Elder Spencer
