At the Sign of the Prancing Pony

While driving we saw some people riding horses down the road! Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get a picture of them due to the turns in the road.

Mon 10th

For P-day we went to the beach again but this time we played Spike Ball and Monopoly and started my exchange with Elder Roberts.

Tue 11th

I had my emotional resilience class, which is so awesome! I also had a cool miracle! Me and Elder Roberts had forgotten to pray before we went out knocking and were having bad luck. When we remembered to pray, the next house we knocked on someone answered and was interested in the Gospel!

Wed 12th 

We were super busy on Wednesday and got our apartment ready for apartment inspections.

Thu 13th

We had District Council and then had our PPI’s (Personal President Interview) with President Smuin! Super awesome!

Fri 14th 

Love was in the air… and I was allergic to it. I got sick on valentines day because of something I ate so I rested most of Friday.

Sat 15th

I got my first door really slammed in my face. We knocked on someone’s door, they opened it, yelled “I’m tired” and slammed the door. We also had our transfer boards drop (can you believe I’ve been out for an entire transfer already?) I am staying in Amite with Elder Stubbs. We also had some severe weather alerts saying a tornado may happen!

Sun 16th 

I experimented with tying a new knot for my tie. When we went to church we realized that some trees next to the church had been knocked down by the storm!

I love hearing from you guys, and reading your emails. I’ll end this one off with a scripture that I know has helped me.

Heleman 3:29-30

29 Yea, we see that whosoever will may lay hold upon the word of God, which is quick and powerful, which shall divide asunder all the cunning and the snares and the wiles of the devil, and lead the man of Christ in a strait and narrow course across that everlasting gulf of misery which is prepared to engulf the wicked— 

30 And land their souls, yea, their immortal souls, at the right hand of God in the kingdom of heaven, to sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and with Jacob, and with all our holy fathers, to go no more out.

May the light of Christ be in your heart

Elder Ward
