This is a serious pile of Wood!! (haha)
We did more service this week then I ever have! It was great! For
the first half of the week we chopped wood all day every single day. We have a
single less active sister that lives out a ways from town that owns her own
little convenient store that is heated with fire so she goes through a ton! We
have been working on this wood pile for a little over a month but we decided
that we would just finish it this week. After we got done is turns out that this
was only the first load and that there is going to be another load coming! We
also chopped wood and herded cattle for an older couple that lives out in the
middle of no where! Its been an awesome week of service! I forgot to mention
also we had exchanges with the district leader this week as well so I went up to
Cherry Grove. It was super fun I love going up there. While I was up there I
also got to see the northern lights for the first time which was super cool but
I didn't get a picture.. Towards the end of the week we helped another single
lady whos husband passed away a year ago or so. She had to clean out a huge barn
of junk that her husband kept. He was a total horder and we spent literally all
day there cleaning stuff out and i dont think we got even close to getting it
half way done. She definitely needed our help though so im glad we got to help!
She is less active and kind of avoids missionaries but once we helped her out it
totally opened up doors. She had us over for lunch and baked us a couple pies to
take home and she totally opened up, so hopefully we can start meeting more with
her and get her back to church! Kind of a slow week for missionary work but
service opens the door for it so we're gonna keep doing it! Ammon first served
King Lamoni before he started talking:) Thats my spiritual thought.
Have a great week everyone,
