Hi!
Today is the first time in about 3 weeks that we have a fairly normal pday! So I'll be able to send you an actual goodish email hahaha..

Last week was miracle madness. We started it off with all the zone conferences, traveling with elder Bennett was amazing. We talked to him a lot about his experiences that he has had in Russia and all over the world.. I'm so grateful to be in Canada! Sorry Drew I'll keep you in my prayers while you preach to the Russians... One thing I felt last week from the trainings was a greater sense of urgency. I felt like I needed to go out and talk to people instead of having to because I'm a missionary. (Sometimes missionaries go through the motions, but I felt a desire to go out and do it) it was like being a green y'all over again.
Immediately after Wednesday's conference we went out finding and had a really cool contact. We ended up walking with this family back to their apartment, answering questions and talking about the plan of salvation. It was neat as well because one of them was from nearby to Bathurst which is one of my first areas. The family was pretty bad, they had a daughter going in for surgery the next morning and they were worried about it, it was awesome to be able to help them feel comforted from the message we shared
Here is the super fun news. Johnathan got baptized! He also received the aaronic priesthood and will be going to the temple this Friday! He is such an amazing example. He went from bad habits and no God to dropping everything and learning the gospel. He has had some super cool experiences that have made him strong as a member of only a few days. President Pratt wants him to prepare for a mission, so we are going to see if it's something he would consider in the future... He really gets it though, after his baptism he said, a few more things like this and then temple marriage! We got so stoked hahah. We have many pics for you don't worry!
Other fun stuff,Tuesday night it snowed, Saturday it was 30 degrees.. Hahaha what the deuce?
This week the only event going on other than missionary work is mission leadership council.. So it will be our first normal week in almost a month:) today is my 22 month mark, which is also weird and cool.
I love you all:) thanks for the emails!
