Welp, I’m 19! Thanks for all the birthday wishes everybody!
Everything else this week was very normal. We reached out to members a lot this week. Most of the members of the church here are some of the only members in their family. The Gospel of Jesus Christ was meant for families, and so we’re trying to help encourage people to reach out to their families and share the happiness that it brings to their lives.
We also spent a lot of time trying to find older members of the church that live around Jihlava. That meant we walked around in the dark for a good few hours, but it was good because we were able to get contact with people who hadn’t talked to missionaries in a long time. We didn’t actually get to visit with any of them, but we’re hoping to try again soon.
That’s the theme for this week, hope. I have a lot of hope for the things I’ll be doing this next year, and I’m grateful for the assurance that I have that even if things don’t work out how I expected, they’ll work out in the end. Our Savior loves and knows each one of us, and we’re each prepared for the path we have to walk.
