Week 78
Another good week here in the great land of Arkansas! Nothing too big happened this week, but we have been really busy.
The highlight of the week was the Mission broadcast el merciless, and then going to the temple for MLC the next day! I quote that I really liked from the broadcast was "If you don't know what to say, start talking about the Savior. We can never talk to. Much about the Savior, Matt: 10:32. Speak of him, and he will speak of you to the father." Neil L. Anderson. That was a huge theme of the missionary broadcast is having the "Savior on our lips". Sometimes we get focused on all of the little things, but I have seen as we relate everything to the Savior, the spirit testifies and those that we are teaching our touched. We should all be ready to testify of the Savior in all times and places. It was the first Worldwide Missionary Boadcast in ten years. The last one was the release of Preach my Gospel. I learned many things from the broadcast, and was able to set some good goals personally and as a district.
That night we headed to Memphis and stayed the night there, so we could get to the meeting on time that next morning. We had mission leadership council,l and in the middle of the meeting were able to do a session in the temple. It was an awesome experience, and we had a really cool questions y answer session with the Temple Presidency after. The temple is such an amazing place.
Other than that this week included a snow day, but we only had to stay in the apartment for a couple hours extra. There was about five inches of snow on the ground though, it was pretty impressive! Later on that day we went and closed down an apartment. Then on Saturday we had to drive downtown o Arkadelphia to deliver a bed for a trio. Pretty good week overall. We were able to teach a little bit, and Alina the less active member in the Spanish branch made it to church down there on Sunday which was sweet!
It sounds like you had a fun week this week! Our week will be pretty crazy with transfers. Our whole district is staying the same other than the Elder that is going home, and another Elder will come in. Elder Ceron will be training in Jonesboro this transfer, so I will be a grandpa!! Pretty sweet stuff! Have a great week, love y'all!
Con amor,
Elder Geddes
