What Just Happened?

Family and Friends!

Well, first off I really hope everyone is safe and taken care of! Second, this Coronavirus is THE WORST! We aren't in isolation yet, but most likely will be this week Never in a million years would I have guessed this would happen, especially while I'm out here serving the Lord.

The beginning of this week was pretty normal.

Tuesday: We had a ton of lessons with members which was awesome!

Wednesday: We had District Council and some more lessons.

Thursday-Friday: Sister Ballard woke up with a cough on Thursday, so we had to stay inside for 3 days. Let's just say staying inside as a missionary is SO BORING! We watched almost all the church movies in our apartment. But, on the upside, I did get to study a ton and clean the apartment! Woot woot!

Saturday: We got to go out to get priesthood blessings, which was much needed. I didn't realize how much I have been needing one until I sat down and Elder Walter started giving me the blessing. One piece of advice I'd give everyone is to never be afraid to ask for a priesthood blessing! They can only help so JUST DO IT! (Nike boom)

Sunday: We got to have sacrament with our district. It was a little weird at first, but as soon as they started saying the sacrament prayer, the Spirit was so strong! It was the coolest sacrament meeting I've ever been in to be honest! After that, we had some more lessons which were all super good!

So this week with everything literally going insane, I've been thinking a lot about how inspired our prophet is. If you haven't seen the video "Hear Him", I invite you to go watch it! In these times of confusion and fear, it is so important for us to take the time to really listen to what our Heavenly Father is trying to tell us. He provides answers to all our questions and concerns, but if we don't take the time to actually listen, we won't get the answers. So, take the time that you have now from work or school to listen for the voice of the Holy Ghost. I love and miss you all! Stay safe and healthy!
