Well, this is week 3 of quarantine and man was it crazy! Here's what went down:
Monday: Normal, chill pday in the apartment.
Tuesday: So, because Sister Snowder and I are two of the "Social Media Specialists" in our mission, we had to go to all the Zone Conferences to help tell the missionaries what the deal is with the Facebook pages. So we had Zone Conference #1 in the morning and #2 in the afternoon! We were kind of dead after, but we were able to make through the rest of the day.
Wednesday: Sister Snowder and I instructed for Zone Conferences 3&4. They went really well and the missionaries got some good ideas rolling! We then had some good member lessons that night and invited them to go like and follow the FB page!
Thursday: Zone Conferences 5&6 all done! We then had a good lesson with one of our members about Come Follow Me. And then we had a meeting with the Marysville stake presidency that night. Yay for more meetings....
Friday: We had some lessons with people from back home which was so awesome! I got to call my neighbors and teach them a lesson which was so fun! We also had a lesson with one of the missionaries that had to come home. He is so awesome and still just trying to do all he can to keep the missionary spirit. We are going to try and invite him into lessons we have so we'll see how that goes!
Saturday: We made 2 new friends! A member contacted us and told us he had a friend from work that he told about the Book of Mormon and is interested in hearing an uplifting message from us. Then he also told us that his friend was inviting one of his friends! They are so awesome! They both were super open to reading the Book of Mormon and learning more so we have a lesson with them again next week! We are so pumped!
Sunday: We had a devotional with our ward and I was asked to share my testimony of the Savior. It was still so neat that the spirit could still be felt even over technology! The church is true y'all! We also got to finally take the sacrament and I didn't realize how much I needed it until I heard the prayer for the bread. It's amazing the peace and comfort that comes from partaking of the sacrament.
Well, that was pretty much the week y'all. I know this whole quarantine thing can be hard but something that my dad told me early on in my mission was "it came to pass, it didn't come to stay". This won't last forever but don't just wish this time away. This is the time to strengthen you relationship with your earthly family and your heavenly family. I know our Heavenly Father loves each and every one of you. He is mindful of every situation. Turn to Him in all things. I love you all and hope y'all had a good week! Keep me updated on y'alls lives!
