Thanksgiving and my 9 Month Mark- Nov. 30, 2015

Hey Everyone, I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving, We had a great one.

Monday: We had our P-day, then we went and taught Bill. We talked to him about the Holy Ghost and how it will be a guide to help direct our life's. The lesson went great. We talked about the importance of the Holy Ghost.

Tuesday: We went and helped Peggy with some service. We helped her to get ready for Thanksgiving. We helped her set up her tables and then we helped her clean. It was great. I love helping her. We then went and saw Susan. We read the Book of Mormon with her. It was a powerful lesson. The spirit was so strong. We talked about Laman and Lemuel and the tree of life. She really liked this story.

Wednesday: Was District meeting. We talked about listening to the spirit and relying on the spirit. I gave an instruction on relying on the spirit. It went great. We talked about why we need to listen to the spirit and how we cant teach without the spirit. We also talked about how we need to have the spirit to direct us to the places God wants us to be.

Thursday: Was Thanksgiving. We did our Planning and then had Thanksgiving at Diane's house. She is an investigator. We were able to meet her family and discuss what we do as missionaries and also our beliefs. It was a great opportunity to discuss our beliefs.

Then we went contacting. Not very many people were out but it was good.

Friday: We went finding and then we went and helped Sister Holquiest. We helped her to put her Christmas decorations up. It was fun decorating her house and getting ready for Christmas. It reminded me of home and putting decorations up.

Saturday: We went and helped Peggy get ready for her Thanksgiving Dinner. We helped her cook potatoes, the turkey, stuffing, and other stuff. It was fun cooking for others. We also were able to meet her family and talk with them. It was a great experience.  Then we went finding in Almont. 

Sunday: Was a great Sabbath. Bill was confirmed a member of the Church and he was given the Holy Ghost. It was great. He was so excited. I love seeing the desire and change in others life's and them wanting to become like Christ. In Sacrament the speakers talked about gratitude. Here is a quote I really liked, Gratitude is the Key to Love, it is also the Magic of life, Use Gratitude to love others.

Well I hope you all have a great week!! Also check out the new Christmas initiative at www.mormon.org/christmas  it is a great video.
