6 Months!!!

Hello Everyone!

Another week seems to have flown by rather quickly.  It's been another great week.  BIG NEWS - I completed my first 6 months of the mission this week - super exciting. 

Thursday 3/3 - After a great p-day last week we worked our night shifts in the work zone.

Friday 3/4 - We spent the day working our normal shifts in the work zone.

Saturday 3/5 - We worked during the day and then had our sports activity that night - which was fun.

Sunday 3/6 - We went to see the weekly broadcast of Music and the Spoken Word - interesting thing was that Mack Wilberg was supposed to be the director, but Ryan Murphy directed instead.  We then had TWO choir practices (a smaller one for a number we're singing in church on Sunday, the other for branch choir!).  We then immediately had church and then we had a Young Elder Fireside where Elder Richard Clarke (one of our senior elders!) spoke - he's a really funny person and gave a great talk.  We also had the weirdest outdoor weather day - sun, rain, hail, and snow all in the same day. 

Monday 3/7 - We got up early so we could get to the mission choir practice on time.  We then had our weekly devotional.  Monday was also our mission president's birthday, so we sang to him at the devotional.  We then went to work in our work zones, had our district meeting, and then saw the film "The Testaments."

Tuesday 3/8 - We spent the day working in the work zone.  Tuesday was also the day of my 6 month mark - it's amazing how FAST the time goes in the mission.

Wednesday 3/9 - We worked and we also had our Young Elder Conference where Elder C. Scott Grow from the 1st Quorum of the 70 spoke to us - he gave an exceptional talk/lesson - we of course got to meet him afterwards - it was a wonderful conference.  Since I'm in the mission choir, I'll get to hear from him next week too at the senior's mission conference.  We also had the mission choir rehearsal yesterday as well.

Thursday 3/10 - We already did our shopping and cleaned our apartments - since tomorrow we have our March Apartment Inspection - hopefully that will go well haha. 

Well it's been another fabulous week here in the mission!  Thank you for all your support and prayers - I can definitely feel them alot.  Love you all and have a great week! :)
