Wow! This week was full of adventures. We had 9 service projects this week. They just came up out of nowhere and kept us running all day. We have been working so hard and the work here is speeding up.
We are feeling the spirit so strongly out here in our personal study and in our lessons and service. We were helping an older lady dig a trench that she needed and it started raining so hard on us and we got all muddy and wet...thanks Oregon!
We helped another older guy move all his items, we put up siding on a house for a girl and then we helped another lady with moving wood! It was a busy week for us and we like that people know we are here to help and share the message of Christ in their town.
We had some great member lessons and we are studying a lot. We are trying to bring people close but there are always those people that hate up and tell us we are of the devil! Haha! But I loved reading Alma 37:37 this week:
37: Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.
So each day we ask what we can do and who we can help. It’s different but it’s ok because we can change people in small and simple ways and by that God can change people’s lives!
