(this is the road 10 feet from our barn/apartment)
I'd say this week went pretty well. It started off with a zone conference, so I got to see some missionaries that I don't normally get to see. At the zone conference we discussed some of this year's goals. Let's just say that these goals are definitely going to keep us missionaries busy. Anyways that was a good time though.
This past Sunday I spoke in Sacrament meeting, and it went great. I mixed strong gospel and humor into my talk. I felt like a stand up comedian up there. I spoke on missionary work, and after Sacrament meeting was over, everyone was all fired up to start doing missionary work. One of our members came up to us and told us about his less active brother who has a wife and a 9 year old who wants to get baptized. They all want to start taking the lessons! So that should be pretty awesome! With my luck though I'll get booted out of Rockland right in the middle of us teaching them😂 Everyone thought I was giving a farewell in my branch and they were telling me how much they were gonna miss me. I feel like it was the Lord's way of preparing me to get ready for a move. Who knows though.
The weather was beautiful Thursday through Saturday morning. It was in the upper 40s lower 50s. We wore short sleeves, and it actually felt like a summer morning to us out there! So that was a beautiful thing that happened this week. Until it literally dropped 45 degrees in the course of 3 hours and the whole state turned into a slip n slide park. I've heard Utah's had like nothing of a winter, and it's gonna be a drought of a summer. Just about all the snow melted outside because of the rain and it almost looks like summer out here.
We've got a few progressing investigators out here, and they're awesome. They could use some prayers for church attendance though. Because of the weather everyone either wants to stay inside and stay all warm and cozy, or are sick. Btw don't get the flu this year. A few of our investigators got it, and they look like they are actually dying.
Have a good week everyone and stay healthy and warm.
