Hey everyone so glad I get
to talk to all of you again and hear about all the amazing things you are
doing. This week was pretty good, nothing too crazy happened but a good week
nonetheless. But without further delay let's jump right on into this mess!!
Monday last week was
pretty crazy. We were asked to drive a missionary to the mission home because
he was going home. So we had to borrow a car from another set of missionaries
and then go get him and his companion. When we got him to the mission home they
invited us for dinner, so we had dinner with President and Sister Shields.
After that we had to take the missionary's companion back home to grab a couple
of things so he could spend the night with some other missionaries. Pretty much
a day full of driving but I ain't complaining because I got to drive!! 🚗
Tuesday we had an
appointment in the morning with someone but they didn't show up. After that we
went walking around talking to people in the Downtown area. We did that until
our dinner appointment that night. The food was super delicious, Coconut
Chicken Curry, mmm so good! After that we had to rush over to the church so we
could teach English class.
Wednesday was good; we had
Zone Conference all day. It is always so awesome to see other missionaries and
to get to talk to them. The conference was good and they fed us some really
good chili as well so it was a win win.
Thursday we had lunch with
a friend of mine from St Thomas. It was good to see him and get to talk to him
for a bit. After that we did Weekly Planning until a dinner appointment that we
had. While we were walking over there we saw a movie filming going on. It was
for some movie named "Polar" so keep your eyes peeled for it. 🎥
Friday we were on
exchanges so I was with Elder Cornejo. We went around talking to people on the
street and visiting some of the people they know. We were walking around and
there is this huge place called The Castloma and there was just a ton of people
there. So being the curious teen that I am I asked a security guard what was
going on. He said that there was a party going on inside! I asked him if I
could join but sadly he said no. Depressing.😞 That night we exchanged back and
played sports with them and some people from their congregation.
Saturday nothing too crazy
happened. We went around talking to people a lot until we had a dinner
appointment that night. He made some really good food and he is so freaking
funny. He is from East India and has been in Canada for about 3 years. After
that we had to hustle home.
Sunday was good other than
the fact that I lost an hour of sleep, 😴but that's beside the point. We had
church in the morning and it was a girl’s farewell because she is leaving to go
on her mission on Tuesday to Peru! It was awesome to hear her speak. The
classes were good as well. After church they had a potluck for her going away
party and let me tell you something, people from the Philippines make some
really good food! After that we went and visited someone and gave them a
blessing. Then we went home teaching with a guy who got baptized about 3 months
ago. That was good to be a part of with him. Then we went and had dinner and
had a meeting right after it.
Well that's all I got for
this week! I hope you all have a good rest of your week and lots of awesome
experiences to come!
Love and miss you all!!!
