Hi guys!
How has everyone been?! This week looking back doesn’t seem very long feeling, but at the same time it does feel like a week. (Don’t know if that makes any sense at all lol). But I am happy to once again be writing another week’s worth of stuff!
Last Monday, we were watching the Facebook page so we did some Facebook work. We also had a lesson with one of our friends where we read Moroni 7 and talked about miracles and Charity. It was a good lesson!
Tuesday was super busy. We had District council in the morning at the Dallas Building, and that went well. Then we ate lunch and then had interviews with President Needs. I don’t think I can say it enough, that is always a fantastic time!!! :)!!! I got a new pillow and it is probably the biggest pillow that I’ve ever seen!! It is so fluffy, and well, I like it a lot! Cool story for after interviews, we met a lady at Publix about 2 or 3 weeks ago and we felt prompted to call her, so we did. It ended up being a super cool phone call because she said she has been doing some research about the church and asked some awesome questions! We pretty much got to teach the whole Restoration and she said that she liked it!
Wednesday, we pretty much had a day full of contacts. We had dinner at the Pearson’s house, and they are such nice people! The Krogh’s, who is Sister Pearson’s daughters fam comes to eat with us as well, so it is always a party!
Thursday, we tried to have Weekly Planning, but it seemed like everything else in the world came up ?. But we got as much as we could done and finished it through Friday and Saturday.
And that leads to Sunday, where we had really good church :). In sacrament meeting there were three talks. First we learned that standing up for what we believe in helps us shine the light of Jesus Christ. Then we learned how we should love God First and our neighbors and that will bring so many blessings. And then we learned how it’s not going to be easy, but will always be worth it.
Saturday, we got transfer news! I am going to be staying in Stilesboro and Elder Peterson is going somewhere else ?.
For a spiritual thought today, I feel like I should share a message about Jesus Christ having healing in His wings. In 3 Nephi 25:2, it teaches that Christ will come with Healing in his Wings. I read that this week and it really stood out to me, because how true it is! Jesus Christ truly is the source of all Healing, and through him, we can change and become better people!! I don’t have a ton of time today because it is the Last Pday as this District, so I will write next week :).
Hope y’all have a fantastic week!! -Elder Claussen
