Wow...

January 20, 2014

So this week was like super insane, miracles were just happening. In our Zone we broke mission records, things were crazy. We had what was called 'Social Media Split' day, and people got really good days organized because of it. Members would go out with the missionaries and post pictures of them doing all their stuff, and hash tag all the same thing, all over the mission. Pretty smart idea from President there. But yeah, our Zone went insane this week. Good job zone!

     Some other exciting news, we have 2 baptisms on Friday! This amazing guy, Chris, is the most golden kid I've ever met. He was asking what the requirements for serving a mission were after our 3rd lesson with him, his testimony is insane. SO excited for him!!! He's so committed to going on a mission, he's already saving up his money. Love that guy!!! He's 23, so he'll be like 24 when he can go. He's so sweet. We met this other kid, Brandon, who also wants to serve a mission after the 1st lesson, but we had to turn him over to the other elders in our apartment cause he lives in their area. But it's insane. The other girl getting baptized is Amanda. Hopefully.

      Been working so hard this week, sleep deprivation is real. I always just slept in before, but can't do that anymore ;). Not that I'd even want to, I get so pumped to get out there. Working out every morning feels so good. I love life!! And it's P-day today, so we go to the church with the other missionaries and play awesome sports, so much fun. 

      Enough about me, how are you guys doing? If you have anything super exciting you want to tell me, go for it! There's nothing like getting lost in the work, just focusing on what you have to do that day to be the best missionary. I love teaching the Gospel, nothing better out there. Anyways, I love you all!!! Have a fantastic week!
