Week 69: January 9, 2017

Good morning and happy Monday!

             This past week has been so awesome and has been a lot of fun.  The first thing I have to comment on its the weather.  So recently the weather has been really nice, perfect temperatures.  But this past weekend has been brutal, it has been freezing!  The past couple days have been down in the 40s normally and at not time in the 30s.  I'm not used to that any more.  So that has been weird, but fun.  I have been wearing more sweaters and coats.  But that has been a fun change, and I'm sure it will be back to normal heat soon.

              But onto the week, this week has been great, Elder Wilson and I have been working on just going out and being as diligent as possible.  And as we have put in the effort we have been able to find many new people to teach.  One of them is super excited for us to come back and teach her more about the gospel of Jesus Christ.  So there are so many miracles out there for us all we have to do is follow the spirit.  

           One of the cool things from this week was we had a zone conference.  So we had half of the missionaries in our mission were gathered together.  It was awesome to feel the spirit at that meeting and to receive trainings from our mission leaders.  One of the things they put before us was our year goal for 2017. And that goal in us past has usually been a goal for baptisms for the year.  But this year we set a goal of finding the ONE every day.  That means finding one new investigators a day, and as we do so we will see many miracles.  We can't help others come closer to Christ by being baptized unless we find people to teach.  So that's our goal for this year.  And I'm super excited to see how it plays out over the whole year, for my last 8 months of my mission.  I love this gospel, I love my Savior and I'm so grateful for all of he blessings I have received from living the gospel.  And I know that this is true, and I'm grateful that I have this knowledge.

        Well I hope hall have a great week!  Love yall, talk to yall next week!
