Hi everyone!
Hope everyone has had a great week! It has most certainly been super busy here in Dublin! Most of the week has once again been finding and teaching, so spoiler alert, that’s probably going to be most days.
Last Monday, we pretty much shopped and stayed at the apartment, nothing too, too exciting.
Tuesday, we had finding and then in the eenin, we knocked on this lady’s house and she let us in. Apparently she is super high up in her church, so she had some people she was Fellowshipping into her church, so that was pretty cool to give all of them Book of Mormons and have them say that they are going to read it.
Wednesday, we found out that one of our Ward’s recent converts didn’t move away, so we were able to have a good lesson and I was able to meet them.
Thursday, we had weekly planning and some lessons with peeps.
Friday, we had Zone Conference. That was such an amazing time and there were some really cool things that we were able to learn and review. I am super excited the direction that President Farias is taking the mission! 🙂
Saturday, we pretty much just had finding and lessons, so that was good.
Sunday, I finally met the Bishop in the ward! The last few weeks he has been sick with Covid, but now he is alive and doing well! We also had some good finding and lessons.
Kinda a boring week on paper, but there were some really good things that happened!
For a spiritual thought I wanted to talk about Christlike attributes and spiritual gifts. I think it is cool because Jesus Christ is the perfect example, and as such as we try to become more like Him, we can be who Heavenly Father would like us to be :).
Verse of the week is Mosiah 2:17 because when we serve others, we are only serving God :).
Hope y’all have a great week!
