Good day everyone! Well get right in
1. Exchanges and being a DL
2. "Welcome to Neighborhood"
3. Sacrament meeting
1. On Wednesday we went on exchanges with the Zone Leaders. A lot of the focus was on the zone and the district and what we could do. It was a really good exchange. I've been thinking about how I've liked being a District leader, and overall, I'm not sure. It hasn't been quite what I expected, but I don't know what I expected. I guess I'm just not sure how well I'm helping the district and being an example. It's still good. I just heard it was a lot of fun, and I wouldn't say I has had much fun because a lot of the people in our district are a little more wild, so I've felt like I need to be more Mr. Business if that makes sense so we can get things done.
2. After a lesson on Sunday we were walking and then this random lady pulled up and rolled down her window. She yells out asking us if we represent the community. We were like "Sure I guess?" She then talked about the hill we were next to is really fun for kids and we're like ok cool. She then said "Welcome to the Neighborhood!". She then asked if we knew the name of the school to which we turned around and read it. She said if we don't know the name of the school here nobody will talk to us. She also welcomed us to the neighborhood again. She also said she worked at that school and then once again welcomed us to the neighborhood. She had cars behind her so she had to go, but it was a pretty interesting interaction. We kind of hope she doesn't work at that school, because there were certain signs she was drunk or something. She said Welcome to the Neighborhood I think at least 5 or 6 times at random times during our interaction.
3. Church went well. We had 6 of our friends come! Aidyn, Alexis and McKinley. We also had Brenda and Evert come for their 7th week streak. And Remigio came! We told them we were speaking and so his wife dragged him along and we sat with him. It was cool because we had Rem on our right, Brenda and Evert on our left, and the other 3 were with their fellowshipper family in front of us. I wanted to include my sacrament talk, but it's a bit long and I'm running out of time. I talked on "We can experience God's wonders if we have faith in Jesus Christ'', and I talked about Elder Soares' talk from the April 2022 General Conference "In Awe of Christ and His gospel".
I love you all! Sorry I'm a little out of time but I'm doing good. Mom is going into labor tonight for kid 13 and so I'll include that next week. I'm so excited!
