Hello all,
This week was pretty good. We were able to go to the temple on Tuesday. It was soo good. The San Diego temple is my favorite temple. And we are really lucky to go because it is outside of our mission.
We finally had a lesson with Shannon this week. And guess what?!? WE SET HIM ON DATE FOR MARCH 20TH!!! I feel like there is something else on that day though. Not really sure what it is. Oh well. But we are excited for that. He is such an awesome person and is so converted to the gospel. He knows that the Book of Mormon is true, and knows that Joseph Smith was and is a prophet of God.
We also did some service this week at a Catholic food pantry, where we are pretty much slaves for two hours. We clean up everything after people come through and grab food. But it is fun because we have other missionaries from our zone that go and we just mess around and play games.
This week Elder Trounce and I were talking about how fast time has gone by on the mission. He just hit his 6 month mark. And it really does. When you are focused on the Lord's work it is fun! We work really well together and get a lot done. We are going to start working with a part member family of a recent convert. He just received the higher priesthood. His whole family aren't members, but they have been going to mutual and came to his ordination. So we are also looking forward to that.
Well that is about it for this week. More good stuff coming up for next week. I will let you know how it goes!
Love,
Elder Miles
P.S. Oh yeah!! The 20th is Miranda's birthday! Happy Birthday Miranda!
