This week has been super busy!!!! No rest for the
weary.
Service….we have been doing tons of it!!! In the past
5 days I have.... Reroofed a house, Mowed lawns, Moved people in and out of
homes, and Dug an irrigation ditch (my ancestors would be proud). It's nice to
do service plus we get to wear normal clothes for a little while. :) This
Irrigation ditch we dug was for a non member! And afterwards we had a spiritual
message and prayer. It was so cool!
We have been trying to meet with our investigators but
last week was a hard week to get a hold of most of them. We did however have a
really good lesson with the Buffat family! They all paid so much attention to
the lesson it was great! But towards the end of the week we were having little
success. We both were frustrated and decided we needed to blow off some stress.
How do two young men decide to do it? No holds barred, bare knuckle, boxing
of course!!!! We have a trampoline in our backyard so we decided to just go to
town. 4 rounds later, we were winded, bruised, but so relaxed!!!! Best
companionship ever!!!!
We have new leadership in the 9th ward. The new ward
mission leader is great! We already have 2 new ward missionaries and we had a
meeting last night with all of us and the bishop. We got a lot done and it was
a great experience. This new WML has already been setting up appointments for
us and been going with us! We even got this family reactivated! It’s nice to
have member support.
I feel like I'm building relationships that will last
my whole life, with members, missionaries, and non members alike. Even if our
area isn't as successful as we like we still work hard and build bonds of
friendship and trust. I'm so happy to be a missionary! Congrats to everyone who
has been getting their calls, Donny Mitchell, Kelsey Stradling, Nate Jarnigan. This is
the greatest work we can do. So let’s go to work.
Love,
Elder Caleb Rash
