Conference Weekend

 E aí bom?

This week was great! We were able to stay pretty busy, which is always a good thing. For service, we went to the food pantry and helped seal cracks in their basement walls. It was my first time working with cement so that was interesting. Also, we were able to find a new person this week, which is definitely a miracle. Her name is Debra, and she is actually in California right now, but she lives here. We told her about the Book of Mormon, and she was super excited to hear more! We also were able to get her to watch conference! She seems very interested, so pray for us that all goes well.

Another cool thing that happened this week was we started a zoom Book of Mormon class for our ward. We only had 3 members this first class, but we are working on getting it to grow. It was really fun and I'm excited to keep doing it. The best part of the week though was definitely general conference.

Spiritual thought: There were so many great talks this conference about loving everyone, and making ourselves better every day. I especially loved President Nelson's talk about Israel, and how it means let God prevail. He asked us to pray to find those who will let God prevail. I invite you all to do this with me so that missionary work can continue forward through you and me.

Things I hate: It's funny, every time I type "things I hate", "mosquitos" pops up on my recommended words to use. It is true, they are the worst. Nothing really bad this week though so that's good.

Things I like: Conference. Also, we found some cool places on our walks in between conference. The weather has been great this week.

Photos!

Quick story, Elder Brady gave us a potato like 2 months ago that some other Elders gave him at transfers. We named it Elder Brady and kept it in the fridge until he finished his mission and went home, then we shipped it to him haha. So that's what that photo is.

The others are photos from our walk around Harper's Ferry between sessions on Saturday. There was a cool foundation of an old Civil War era grain mill and a historic farm with cool trails all the way down to the Potomac. 

Also, I forgot to tell you that we get to meet in-person for Church every week now with up to 100 people in the meeting (which shouldn't be a problem for our ward). I am so glad we get to start going to church again. Maybe it will remind the members that we missionaries are here and need there help in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. (And a dinner or two brought over wouldn't be bad either)

Elder Brady received his potato back home
