‘Tis the Season πŸŽ„ ❄️ Week #85 12/04/2017

Hey Family

OK wow I cannot believe it’s been another week already. Things have been going really good for me this last week. There has been a lot of stuff going on with Christmas and the #LightTheWorld.

Juneau Has the craziest weather that I think I have ever seen on my mission it snows and we get probably a few inches and then it will rain and turn to straight ice. The rain also is like super cold so when it hits your face it is really annoying. I have never seen the weather be so back-and-forth before but it’s pretty cool I guess.

So this week is been super busy we started off last Monday with all the missionaries coming into town for zone conference on Tuesday. After everyone got in on Monday we started interviews with the missionaries with our mission president. That went really well and then we came back and everybody stayed at the trailer that night so it was kind of crazy we had 16 missionaries sleeping in the trailer. We had a lot of fun.

So Tuesday morning my companion and I gave a training on Christlike attributes to all the missionaries it went really well and then for the rest of the conference the missionaries in our zone got trained on Facebook and now everyone in our zone is using Facebook and It has been a blessing in our mission. It was really chill for us because we had already received training at MLC and so we basically just hung around for the day and helped out where we could.

Then on Wednesday it was just as busy most of the missionaries flew out that morning but Ketchikan missionaries stayed in Juneau and we did exchanges with them for that day and it was a lot of fun I got to work with Elder Maxfield and we were able to share the light the world and me a lot of people. It was a super awesome day and then on Thursday we sent them home.

Finally Thursday came in all the missionaries were back in their areas and it felt like we could finally take a breath. I love zone conferences but man they really stress me out o was really glad to just be back and doing missionary work.

This next week it’s going to be kind of crazy to tomorrow we fly out to Anchorage for MLC. It kind of sucks because we will be there for less than 24 hours and so it’s a lot of traveling and not a lot of time so it always makes me super tired.

On another note this Friday we get our transfer calls i’m curious to see how that’s going to play out.

But like I said things are going really good for me I love Juneau and the opportunity of I’ve had to serve here and maybe continue to serve here. I hope you all have a great week I love and miss you all.
