Week 57: Return of the Missionaries....

Merry almost-Christmas everyone :))

Update for this week:
Our missionary Christmas devotional thingy was this week, and it was amazing :)) we had a wide variety of music too lol, someone played the bagpipes, someone else was on the harmonica, a couple Sisters did a piano/organ duet, and there was a lot of other music too! Sister Malu sang a song she wrote and it was SO GOOD! Also her old companion who finished her mission last transfer CAME BACK to accompany her on the guitar :))) it was awesome!

Also a different missionary who finished his mission this past summer came back and came to our ward for church! It was so weird not calling him Elder, ngl. XD

Scripture of the week:
Mosiah 16:9
"He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death."

Funny Quotes:
• *6yo Lile, writing thank-you notes to her friends in primary* "Thank... you... fooorrrr.... beeeiing.......... How do you spell responsible?"
• "Nobody questions confidence" - me
 
Fun Fact:
Shoutout to my brother and his new wife who got sealed this week!!!!!!! Love y'all ๐Ÿฅฐ❤

Happy Easter :)) Update for this week: A lot of fun stuff happened this week! On Wednesday we were at the church waiting for Teresa and her family because we had a lesson set up, but they ended up being late... so one of the counselors in the Bishopric recruited us to talk to the 14-15 yo boys about missionary work   it was awesome, and they had really good questions! Missionary work is a good time :) On Thursday, we took a member of the Samoan ward tracting with us because she's in the MTC! It was super fun, and she gave us a ton of tips for finding Polynesian people  Friday was Zone Conference and it was AMAZING. I learned a lot, especially from the discussion we had about General Conference. I LOVE Elder Uchtdorf's talk, President Nelson's talk, Elder Eyring's talk, and Elder Klebingรถt's talk. It was super amazing because it helped me learn how to be a better disciple of Jesus Christ. What's something you all learned from General Conference? I also had to bea...

Finn Hill is awesome and also odd XD Update for this week: Holy cow I LOVE my new companions!!!! They are both so cool and such good missionaries :) Sister Misi is an AMAZING teacher and so good at asking questions and also very artistic. Sister Beckstead is such a good example and is just so sweet and I'm sad she's gonna leave to her original assignment on the 21st because this trio life is just the best ever :( but she will do amazing things in Brazil too! This week we've been SUPER busy, I've been getting to know members and learning names and stuff, and we've had some lessons, tried to find people to teach, and also met a member who has a sword collection, and also antique/replica firearms, and bows and arrows (longbow and a recurve, none of them modern). I held one of his swords  Scripture of the week: 2 Nephi 2:28 "And now... I would that ye should look to the great Mediator, and hearken unto his great commandments; and be faithful unto his words, and cho...
