Week 19: Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello all! I hope all of you had a great holiday! This week was a fun one. First off, on Tuesday we spent almost all day with the McKenna Elders serving at the local food bank giving out turkeys and other Thanksgiving-ish food to people who could not afford it. It was a lot of fun. It was really good for us too, to get our faces a little better known here in the community. We had a lot of people ask questions and were really grateful we were there to help out. It was awesome.

The next day we had an awesome lesson with one of our investigators. She is doing super well and is eating everything up. It's really cool to see people progress in the gospel and get answers to prayers confirming what we share. 

Then, we had Thanksgiving! We were not supposed to proselyte that day so we all stayed in a played board games. I lost bad at Monopoly but one Catan, so I think it equals out.

The rest of the week flew by as well. We knocked a lot of doors and found a bunch more people to teach! Things are pretty exciting out here in Yelm.

We also had a really good sacrament meeting here yesterday. There were a lot of talks on faith and how it can provide so many different things in your life, from strength to comfort to motivation. It is important to always remain faithful, no matter how hard the trial is. He is always there for you, and if you remain faithful, He will bless you for it in ways you could never imagine.

Anyways, that's all I have for this week.
Till next time
