Hello everyone, hope
you all had a great mothers day and week! Our week was pretty great! We
celebrated Cinco De mayo by going on exchanges with the spanish elders!
We went and ate at a place called 3 amigos. it was decent, but
definitely not as good as real mexican good!
Do
it snowed this week then went back to normal (if you can say that in Alberta) weather. People weren't exactly happy that day haha.
This
week we got a member referral from a member in another YSA here in
Edmonton and the guy is awesome! He is super solid and willing to keep
commitments! He is a pretty active Anglican, but said he wanted to learn
more about our church. He is getting married in a couple of months so
hopefully we can help him progress before he does the marriage thing.
We
had lunch a couple of days ago with a crazy Jamaican at Panda Express
and it was great!(it was free :) ) she likes to give nicknames to the
missionaries so she came up with mr. noodles for my comp haha. he didnt
like that very much!
Mother's
day was good! We ate breakfast and dinner at our Bishop's house which
was awesome since his wife is a professional cook! nice change of pace
serving in a ysa ward! Skyping the family was pretty cool too. it is a
very surreal moment knowing that was my last skype call home as a full
time missionary. crazy how time flies!
Scripture of the week is Ether 5: 6 " And
now, if I have no authority for these things, judge ye; for ye shall
know that I have authority when ye shall see me, and we shall stand
before God at the last day. Amen." the priesthood authority has been
restored on the earth and we have a great responsibility with that
authority. Missionary work is one of the most important opportunities
that we have in this life. President John Taylor said "Our duty is to
preach the gospel to all men... this is what God expects of us."
Have a great week!
