What a week it was! Good grief, it was something else. I'll break it down.
THE GOOD
Zone conference was on Thursday, and it was fantastic! Talk about a way uplifting meeting. Every training that was given was revelation. We had the Spirit like a river. After President Meredith gave his talk (which was excellent) we heard from our Area Seventy, Elder Packer. He talked about getting the members in the bay area excited about doing missionary work. The Spirit bore witness that what he said was true, and I felt super refreshed.
We also had a rad white elephant gift exchange at zone conference. Here's a picture of me wearing my gift.
What an attractive man...
Another cool thing about this week is that Elder Vance and I have been opening our mouths a lot more and talking to more people on the street. How neat is that? We've definitely felt the Lord giving us enthusiasm and energy as we put our faith in Him and talk to more people.
THE BAD
Now that we've baptized a lot of people, we have no one left to teach. Seriously...we have investigators, but they're impossible to meet with. So Elder Vance are fortunate in that we have a lot of time to find new investigators! Tons and tons of the appointments we set up this week fell through, but that gave us even more time to find! Wahoo!
THE UGLY
This was a few weeks ago. But I was struggling to come up with something for this category.
I know that Gospel is true. I know that the Atonement is real. When we have faith in the Savior and repent of our sins, are baptized, and receive the Holy Ghost, the Savior brings so much joy into our lives. I know that this is true! I love the Gospel, and I love the message that we missionaries share. It will bless the live of each man and woman who heeds it, times infinity.
Have a great week!
Love,
Elder Gillie
