Hello everyone! This week was less exciting because I was
sick, but it's still been full of miracles!
I have been on my mission 110 days so far. (We were bored)
How crazy is that?!
On Tuesday night we had an expanded zone conference and it
was so great. That's basically an opportunity for the all the ward members to
come and be taught and to receive training by the mission president. It was
awesome and we had many people from one of our wards there. All in all it was a
sad turnout, but we were gad that people came at all! Sister Caldwell and I got
to get up in front of everyone and role-play inviting your friend to church. It
was pretty cool. I love talking in front of big crowds and it makes Sister
Caldwell suuuper nervous, so it was kind of funny :D
Wednesday morning we did 5 hours of service. We spent 3
hours at Tiffany Howards house. She's getting baptized on November 28th. We
helped her make a ton of freezer meals and it was so cool because I learned a
TON. She's an amazing cook and amazing mother and I am so glad that we get to
spend time with her. Then we went over to Rose's house. She's an older lady
that we do service for every week. She's not interested in learning about the church,
but she is lonely, so we keep going over. Her story is a bit tragic, but she
loves us and loves God, so she pulls through.
Thursday I went on exchange with Sister Hutchinson. She is
super sweet and from Twin Falls Idaho. We had a ton of miracles and were able
to set up a ton of appointments!
Friday we got to go to the temple with Wanda! She is
amazing. We got to do baptisms with her and she was just so happy to be there.
We got to walk around the temple afterward and take photos. She would only let
me take one photo of her :D
Sunday we had a regional broadcast. I've never heard of
these things before and it was kind of weird. It was a live broadcast from Salt
Lake for the southwest region. It was cool, but so weird. We normally go to
church from 9-3 because of the different wards that we cover, but we only went
from 10-noon. SOOO different :D
Oh, and Sister Caldwell and I are designing zone t-shirts.
I'll send a photo as soon as we get them. They're going to be legit.
I hope all is well with you! Have a miraculous week!
Love Sister Holbrook
