So my past 2 weeks have been pretty crazy but they've been pretty fun! I've been to Wichita Falls Texas, Midwest City, Tahlequah, Broken Arrow, Norman, OKC, Moore, and Stillwater, so far. Just lots of meeting and exchanges! But it's been a good time and I've been able to be around a lot of missionaries. And I'm learning tons from each of them!!
School goes back into session tomorrow, so we plan on getting on it way more now!!! I'm so excited, I've missed campus!
I am in a YSA ward here! Pretty small right now but hopefully bigger once school gets back in!
Actually we haven't gotten much snow and when it did snow in Edmond we were out on exchanges in Tahlequah so I didn't really get to see it come down. But I saw the little bit that was left when we got back from interviews!
My responsibilities these last 2 weeks included:
4 Interview meetingsA greenie meeting
4 Exchanges
A mission tour with Elder Ochoa, Elder Teixeira and Elder Harris (I'll talk more on that later that was cool)
It was a good last couple of weeks!! We built a lot of relationships and met a lot of missionaries! I think the most fun part for me was being able to go work in Stillwater last weekend and just go hard with Elder Downing (who's also from Gilbert). It was way fun just going hard tracting and getting return appointments! We taught some pretty cool lessons too and also had to shut down some guy who tried to pretty much tell us we were wrong. It was fun!! Elder Downing is a very skilled missionary and I learned lots from him!
We also got to go back to OKC 3, 2 weeks ago and that was super cool!! I got to see Brother Long, a good friend who was a ward missionary and we just got to work hard over there too. I was with Elder Wright, who was part of my MTC group, and we just had a good time together!
It was so much fun just being back in the old area!
Lots of cool miracles in the mission right now with us missionaries as a whole stepping up our game and giving our best. Elder Teixeira came and spoke to us as a mission yesterday and it was super cool! He suggested some cool new ideas for finding people to teach that I am super excited to try out!
It was cool at the mission tour, just listening to all the general authorities and their testimonies! Such a powerful meeting full of personal experiences and excitement for the work of the Lord! The Spirit was strong in there, confirming that these men were called of God.
I'm loving the mission! Seizing every opportunity I can to share the gospel with people is what I've been working on, especially looking for unplanned opportunities to invite people to learn and check things out!
Love ya!
Elder Wold
