This week has flown by...... feels like the longer I am out, the quicker everything goes by! Pretty crazy to think that I hit my 6 month mark this week!!
This week consisted of Zone Conference, exchanges, service, eating some dog at a Birthday Party, and a killer Sacrament meeting!
We Headed up to Roswell on Tuesday morning for Zone Conference.....left at 6:30 and got do drive while the sun was rising....and man that was BEAUTIFUL!! The mountains surrounding made it even better! Zone Conf was good.....found out that we get phone in March and also a Facebook, pretty crazy to think that Missionary is going to Change that much in just a short amount of time! It will be such a blessing though! After we got back from Zone Conf, we had an exchange with the Ruidoso Elders! We did lots of chopping wood this week and we go to this thing that the Apache's have called the Elderly Center....basically like a Senior Center, except the people don't live there....we cook and serve food for the people there!! Met this guy there and his name was One Stab....he also had 4 tear drop tattoo's by his eye...pretty sketchy hah!
Yesterday for sacrament meeting we were blessed to have 2 High Councilmen come down from Roswell, and they both gave some great talks! The one thing that stood out to me the most though was the one guy said...... " Mistakes don't define us, but the refine us." And that is exactly what they really do. We are here on this earth to learn and grow, and sometimes it is hard....we all have our faults, but when we come to acknowledged that we aren't perfect and the only person to ever be was our Savior Jesus Christ....that's when we truly learn and grow for ourselves! No matter what we have done in the past we can be forgiven. Heavenly Father wants us to be happy and progress, and the way we can best do that is by coming closer to Jesus Christ and having him take that burden from us!
Love you all and Hope you have a great week!!
Sorry no pictures this week....emailing on an ancient computer haha.
Love,
