Smashing the Work!


Hey Family,

This week has blown by. We smashed the work. We began with a good P-day at Lake Monger with the Dianella District. Following that, we attended the Greenmount District's , District Council, received good training on listening and how to begin teaching new people. 

On our days that were not filled with meetings, we grinded out the days finding souls who want to hear or lean more of the gospel. 

Thursday, we had exchanges with the Assistants, Elder Hansen and Elder Heaton. I was with Elder heaton , we had several appointments that went really well. For him not knowing the people we were teaching it was amazing to see him teach the things that they most needed to hear. 

That same day, we had a meeting with the Mission President to discuss transfers and area realignment. I am so glad that out Mission President sincerely loves and cares about each of us. We discussed many things, but now it is up to the Lord to tell us who is going were. 

Our zone is concluding the challenge of visiting 720 members in this past 25 days. Another zone hopped on the band wagon and we are having a zone vs. zone finish so that is fun :) 

If there is any family in the ward that has stood out as the real MVP, it would be the Slopers. Native Australians that are straight up legends. Brother Sloper works in the mines. When he is off, work he puts on a mean feed for us, we teach a powerful lesson and help the daughter who is preparing for a mission. 

Last of all, I have come to love Sunday. Even though it isn't much of a day of rest for missionaries,  it brings a much needed recharge to the batteries and peace that carries into the week. 

I am grateful to be with Elder Harris to work hard and to see others change because of our message. The scripture that has stood out to me in recent days is Alma 29:9. I want to one day echo the words of Alma with the same power and enthusiasm. 

Have a blessed week.  Love you all.
Chance
