Hello
friends and family!
This
last week has been super great! Elder Dell’ergo and I have been blessed to see
lots of success in our area lately. We both hope we can stay next transfer, but
the odds of that happening are very slim. Whatever happens one of us will most
likely stay, so that will be good!
Last
Monday we had a zone nerf gun fight between the Yakima zone and the Selah zone.
That was super fun. Also District Council that evening was a blast per usual.
Our district has 6 companionships, so it's fairly decent sized. Elder Dell’ergo
is our district leader and he really does a great job with our trainings. Elder
Wardell and I love to tell him that he's our favorite district leader (we're
both in our second transfer and have only had him for a district leader,
haha).
Tuesday
was a super busy day and we were able to teach quite a few lessons. At one of
our lessons with these kids that we've been teaching for a while now we found
out that their cousin is a member and that we know him! He's in the YSA ward
that we also work with. Now that we know he's their cousin we are going to
start bringing him to their lessons!
Wednesday
and Thursday were both a little slower, but still really good days. Our member
dinner Wednesday night was with some of our favorite members, and they made us
some amazing food! Thursday we had interviews with President Welch, which are
always fun, and then for lunch we went out with the YSA Branch President and
his wife.
Friday
we were able to start teaching this lady who we used to teach! She had been MIA
for almost a month and then the other day we drove past her in the car. She
honked at us and we waved back. Elder Dell decided to call her right after and
she said we could come by that night and that she was ready to meet with us
again!
On
Saturday Elder Dell and I went on an exchange with the AP’s because they are in
our district and like I said, Elder Dell is the district leader. Both of our AP’s
are named Elder Hansen, which is pretty cool, so Elder Dell and I both
went with Elder Hansen, haha. The exchange was super great and I learned lots
during it. We had to do a little driving so while we were in the car we were
jamming out to the 2023 youth theme album,‘I Can Do All Things ThroughChrist’. In our mission we can only listen to hymns, covers of hymns, and
the youth albums that the church makes. Because of that this new album is very
exciting news because it means we have new music to listen to, haha.
Sunday
was amazing per usual. The family ward Elder Dell and I are in took a little
bit of time to warm up to us, but now they really love us! I am definitely
going to miss this ward when I leave. At our YSA church meeting all of the men sang
"Ye Elders of Israel". The women had sung two weeks ago so it was
only fair that we sing as well.
Overall
the week was amazing and I saw God's hand in my life many times! I saw a lot of
growth in myself and also in those that I am teaching! The gospel truly can
change people's lives if they will let it!
Have
a wonderful week everyone!!
Elder
Adams
