Leaving the mission😎 - Week 67 - April 11, 2022

I left our mission today! So there is a hike that is up near Fredericksburg, Texas that is called Enchanted rock. It is just outside of the mission boudries, but the mission president allows it. So we got to do that today and then had a bunch of fun playing spikeball, volleyball, and pickleball after. Probably one of my most favorite days I've ever had on my mission. 

We also pushed Greg's baptismal date back a couple weeks. He asked if I could confirm him the Sunday after his baptism! It's exciting however I'm super nervous. I know the Lord will help me though. 

Other than that we just did our normal stuff. We did some service, then taught lessons, and found some new people. 

We are "teaching" this man named Dave. I'm not going to say much because he drives me crazy! He's a basher but likes to say he's trying to learn more about our religion. He's just confused. He goes down rabbit holes. I told him that we will help him with the primary questions. Then we can go to the secondary questions. He then got mad and just said that makes no sense. He just makes me so mad, however we have so much patience for him. We are going Wednesday at 8pm and I'm just going to be bold and straight up with this dude. Should be fun! :)

This week I've been focusing a lot on humility. One of my goals is to not say "I" or "me", and it is hard. I've been learning a lot of different things and it's helping me realize the many weaknesses I have. However, being humble isn't putting yourself down. It's honestly realizing that you can't do things on your own and need God. 

I love y'all, have a good week! I'd love to hear from you.
