The Perfect Week

Hello family and friends again!! Well it was a beautiful week. Can you believe that one year ago from Friday I left for the Provo MTC?? Time is crazy fast but I love it. The mission is so great. So this week couldn't of been better. We had heaps of lessons and great progression with lots of people. But on Friday it was my year mark. I got a "hiding" for it. And all that means is I got hit in the back of the leg by a middle broom stick from two other elders haha. They missed my butt and got my leg, now I have a massive bruise. I won't send that picture cause it's kinda gross. But if you wanna see it let me know haha. Burnt a shirt on Friday night, It went up in flames really really fast haha. A lot easier than my tie.

Saturday was even better. For starts, we had our investigators and ward members come play basketball with us in the morning. It was also my comps Year Mark! But to top it all off. WE HAD A BAPTISM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sister Lydia got baptized on Saturday and confirmed yesterday :) It was such a special day for everyone! 

And yesterday we had a missionary fireside. But it was combined with the Blockhouse Bay ward! I got to see my first ward from my mission one year later haha. It was so cool! We had around 40 less-actives/Non-members there last night so it was really successful! 

This week couldn't of been better. And this year has been the greatest year of my life. Time is counting down slowly, but it's all gonna be worth it! I'm super grateful for all the blessing that the Lord has given me. So many things have happened in this year, and I can't wait to see what this next year brings. I love you all!!!
