We started off last Monday and we went to this super sweet Catholic Shrine. It was awesome inside the chapel thing we brought a ukulele and played songs and had a super fun jam session. Then we took some sweet squad pics. Then for the rest of the night we picked up missionaries from the air port and got them fed and then they all spent the night in our double wide trailer Haha super fun night though!!
Then on Tuesday we had our Zone Conference. This one was a little different. We did the whole conference in P day cloths which was strange but kind of nice to get out of the suit. We did give a 45 minute training in jeans and a hoodie haha it was fun though. Then the second half of the conference we did skits and talents as districts and as companionships. It was really fun. Then after the conference we sent some missionaries to service while we finished up interviews with our mission President and we were all done by 5 so we ate dinner as a Zone and then just played sports until 9. It was a lot of fun. Zone conferences is Juneau are seriously the best!
The rest of the week was pretty normal but on Saturday we did have 3 baptisms. Allie and her kids. They are an amazing family. She has two little girls one named Catalina and the other Peyton and they kill me they are so cute. Catalina is my best friend haha. The Baptism was awesome I’ve never seen such good fellowshipping from the members. They are awesome. This whole ward is amazing
Sunday was a pretty good day. We got to help with the confirmations and help give the gift of the Holy Ghost to Allie and her two kids Leo and savanna. It was an awesome experience. We also were asked to speak in sacrament. They didn’t give us topic they said just whatever we wanted to talk about which can sometimes can be a lot harder then just being given a topic. I ended up speaking on the Holy Ghost because of the confirmations it was a good talk and I’ve actually started to enjoy speaking in church. I think this has been like my 8 talk in sacrament meeting since being on my mission haha.
But those are like the highlights of the week. It’s been a super good week and has been super fun!! This week should be really fun to not to much going on so we actually get to dig our feet in a little bit and do some good work so I’m pretty excited to do some work!
Well have a good week everybody love you all
