Hey mom it is so good to hear from
you!! I am feeling really pretty good right now. Nothing to complain about
other than I got a little sun burnt today! Ha-ha but we played two hand touch
football and soccer! It was fun!!! I really missed playing football playing it
today... never thought I would have said that! I am going to do my best to
shoot everyone a quick note this week. I hope that Blake is doing alright. I
miss that kid. I have a pic of him, Jaden and me posted up in front of my study
desk. I look at it every day! They are great examples for me =) I need to get
an email to him.
Thanks for the tid-bits of news!
Those are always fun to hear! It is crazy, literally crazy how fast time has
been going.... I don’t even believe it. When I was a kid a day seemed like an
eternity and now I get to the house at night time and I ask myself what
happened today?! Nuts...
Sounds like you all had a good week!
I would love to make a comment about every day but I can’t. Just know that I
love hearing about the week and what you guys do!! Olivia is so lucky to eat
that burger! I am jealous!!! She looks older in the pic... it kind of scares me
she is growing up so much!!!!!!! =/ ha-ha
1. This week was pretty good. I was
happy to get out and work. There were things that could have gone better but it
is always like that right? I tried the best I could! We had a great lesson with
Fiorella again. Her grandpa is about to die and she thinks that after death
there is nothing. We taught the plan of salvation and I shared an experience
about Grandma Hall. I teared up and the spirit was so strong!! I know Fiorella
felt it too but she didn’t come to church!!!! Dang it. But I had a cool idea
this week. I wanted to share a miracle that happened every day of this
week.
Monday- we got
our bikes. The tires were flat. We went to go and fill them up but the tires of
Elder A had a valve I have never seen! I tried to figure it out but I let
the air out instead..... I thought we’re in trouble! Ha-ha but then a guy came
up and he looked like a biker. I asked him if he had any valve fits and he
did!! The Lord sure blessed us there!!
Tuesday- we went
to the church to go to an activity. We forgot our sports clothes. We were
getting ready to go back when a guy walked past me and I said hi. He said, hi
elder. I said did you come to play soccer. He said can I talk to you for a
minute. Turns out this guy’s name is Luis and he is a member and hasn’t gone to
church for 12 years. His wife and 10 year old boy aren’t members. He is having
some marriage problems. We helped him out a lot. He told us he had the
impression to walk past the church in that moment and who knows if I hadn’t
have said hi... nothing might have happened! He didn’t go to church though...
=(
Wednesday- we
were riding on the bikes, Elder A in front. We were going fast. He stopped
in front of me and I was going to stop too. I wanted to drift the bike tire to
a stop but my back breaks didn’t work. I had to slam the front ones not to hit
Elder A. In the end, I fell off but I didn’t even feel one ounce of
pain!
Thursday- I had
the opportunity to do an interview with an investigator named Miguel. He got
baptized on Sunday and I got to approve him for baptism! I felt the spirit
really strongly!! I loved the interview!
Friday- the less
actives, Juan and Jessica, have desires to get reactivated and go to the
temple! We had a cool FHE with them!
Saturday- the
sisters that were going to have the baptism called and told me that the dad of Miguel
couldn’t baptize him anymore and that I was the second choice of Miguel! I was
excited to baptize him!
Sunday- I went
over to the church of the sisters and was able to baptize Miguel. It was so
cool to see him come out of the water and I could just see he was clean... what
a great experience!!! It made me really happy and it was such a great
opportunity!
2. As a DL, I get to teach a concept
to my district every Wednesday in the district meeting. That is a cool
experience. I feel the spirit guide me in those classes! And on Sundays I get
to pass the data of the things the people form my district did over the week
and I also get to do interviews when they are needed. All of the responsibilities
are in Preach My Gospel if you want to look at them. I have to go to an extra
meeting before the district meeting an hour early just to learn from the zone
leaders and no district leader is just one person in the companionship. Elder A
is just my comp. That is it!
3. I did finally get the Valentine’s
package!! I loved the candy in there and the clever rhymes!! =) It made my
day!!! And it finally arrived! =) ha-ha what even means more is the you guys
even take the time to think about me and do such sweet things for me! Thanks!!!
Thanks for the spiritual thought! I
am going to read that talk tomorrow for my study!! =) thanks for always
thinking about me and praying for me! It really means so much! I love you guys
more than I can say!! I hope that you all have a great week. Sorry if this email
wasn’t great. I want to get to some other people too. I love you all! =)
Love always,
Elder Tegan Hall =)
