Week 25

It was a quicker week with pday being on Tuesday but awesome nontheless. To get right into it, Julian is on date for November 17th!! We had a few great lessons with him and when we asked him if he would prepare for baptism he was like "Sure! I don't see why not." He's been the greatest example to me of trusting God's plan. He always talks about the miracle of meeting us and how grateful he is for the things he's learning about Christ. He came to church yesterday and called after to thank us for inviting him! He said he's excited to come next week!

On Wednesday, we had a zone wide goal to invite everyone we contacted to be baptized. Wow it was crazy and we saw so many miracles from it! We came together at the end of the day to share the miracles we'd seen. It was really cool to reflect on the day and made me so grateful to be bringing Heavenly Fathers children home.

Halloween was pretty chill. We had to be in by 6 and nobody came to our apartment door which was tragic. We did go tracting in this beautiful neighborhood ealier in the day and they had a bunch of candy bowls outside so we were basically trick or treating.

HAHA I'm reading my journal right now to remember how the week went and on Friday I wrote, "I am so dead. It's the end of the night and I feel like I got hit by a truck. I'm going to sleep so well tonight." I guess that's the life of a missionary sometimes but I wouldn't want to be hit by a truck anywhere but here serving the Lord!

Our member in one of Luisa's lessons this week talked about how if we're a lit candle and light someone else's candle, that doesn't put ours out but even enhances it for a moment. In his recent general conference talk, Elder Kearon said, "True joy multiplies when it is shared." I've found that as I turn outward and help other people light their candles, my joy is multiplied! I invite you all to find ways to share your light this week! Love you all!
