Hey yall!
We keep chugging
along here in the Round Rock Ward! We keep ourselves busy and have been
seeing some pretty cool miracles! Heres the recap from the last week:
We
had a cool experience Tuesday at a visit with the Davis's who are one
of the families in our ward. They are an awesome family and we had a
great time getting to know them. For our spiritual message we focused on
Christs Atonement and how it can make us clean and the spirit was so
strong. They were so grateful that we were able to bring the spirit so
strongly in their home and they thanked us for the visit. I still think
it's such a blessing how as missionaries we can be a source of the
spirit for so many people. It's awesome to get to be able to bring that
to everyone we come in contact with and share that light. So if any of
yall are needing a quick spiritual boost, Don't hesitate to call the
local missionaries. They'll help you out.
Wednesday
I got to go on exchanges with Elder Davenport! For yall who don't
remember, Elder Davenport was my first trainee I trained back in Hill
Country Ward way back last August. It was so great to catch up with him
and reminisce on some of the good old Hill Country days. In our exchange
we did some drop bys to some less Active members of the church and got
rejected pretty hardcore but Elder Davenports attitude is great and we
kept on chugging along.
Thursday
I got to attend Pflugerville District's District Council because it was
Elder McAllisters last DC before he heads home this Wednesday. Elder
McAllister is one of our Assistants to the President and has been a
great example to the mission of a hard working, joyful, obedient
missionary. He gave a training on loving the mission and it was
powerful. He focused his whole training on loving 4 things. 1. The
mission rules. 2. The people we are around. 3. The gospel we preach and
4. The growth we make. I think this can be applied so well to life in
general. If we love God's commandments and the gospel of Jesus Christ,
love and cherish those around us, and love the people we are becoming
and the growth we make every day we will be happy and we will be filled
more profoundly with the light of Christ in our lives. I definitely plan
on applying this in my life in general even after my mission as I try
and keep the joy of the gospel with me always.
Those are my thoughts this week!
Love and miss you all!
Elder Anderson
